The NewsGuild of Greater Philadelphia

Raising Your Voice For Your Value

Reaction has been appropriately angry and appalled to Monday’s bulletin about the Company rejecting the Guild’s request for a pay raise while rewarding the Teamsters with millions of dollars in compensation — including a pension no longer funded for NewsGuild members, and health care for which Teamsters pay NO weekly contribution, unlike NewsGuild members.
Many of you have asked, “What’s next?”
Well, we need you to help answer that. We sure have some ideas.
So, Bill Ross and I will be convening a few quick gatherings next week. Please put this on your calendar. I’m quite sure you’re worth it.

Here are the dates, times and places:
Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2 p.m.
801 Market CONCOURSE by the escalators

Wednesday, Jan. 16, noon – SPP
Wednesday, Jan. 16, 3:30 p.m. – Cherry Hill

If you cannot attend, please reply to this bulletin with any thoughts and/or suggestions.

In solidarity,
Diane
