The Post-Gazette will survive. But it won't thrive in Pittsburgh without robust local coverage and good-faith bargaining with the workers who fought so hard for their rights, the PG, and their neighbors.
Will you join me in signing this pledge to support the new PG

I just signed a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social petition: Tell The New York Times to stop being heartless and let Rich Quan work at home . Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...
We’ve spent 15 months bargaining with Minute Media. We’ve reached agreements on some issues, but management’s proposals on wages, medical benefits and AI remain unacceptable.
We’ve upheld and rebuilt SI, and we deserve better. This is what we’re fighting for.

“We have lost all faith in your abilities to manage the company," said our @zdcreatorsguild.bsky.social who overwhelmingly passed a vote of no confidence in company exec Kate Gutman. Read more here nyguild.org/post/ziff-da...
A small crowd stands around a woman with a megaphone holding a sign that reads "ProPublica Workers: READY TO STRIKE"
A group of six people in winter clothes on the sidewalk smile at the camera. They are holding signs that read "ProPublica Workers Love a Fair Contract" and "ProPublica Workers: READY TO STRIKE"
A man holds a megaphone on a snowy sidewalk next a large inflatable rat. Several people stand near him holding signs that say "ProPublica Workers Deserve Fair Pay"
1/ ICYMI: We are ready to strike if necessary to win the contract we deserve, complete with job security, guardrails around AI and fair wages. Yesterday, we practiced picketing outside @propublica.org offices.
I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter to save The Washington Post. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/save...
Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
one thing i want to emphasize is these "illiberal" and "postliberal" authoritarians are just thieves and crooks! trump is thief. orban is a thief. putin is the biggest thief of them all.
Three banners, two black with white text and one red with white text, that read POST-GAZETTE STRIKERS WILL WIN hang from a yellow bridge with the Pittsburgh skyline in the background.
Tomorrow, our unfair labor practice strike against @post-gazette.com marks it's third full year. Three years of fighting the most lawless union-busting campaign can be tiring, but we're never going to quit fighting.
Last night, we were uplifted to see a new sign adorning the Pittsburgh skyline...
Let's get clickbait out of local news.
We are a group of Idaho and Washington journalists, and our publishing company, McClatchy, wants the ability to punish us for not meeting arbitrary story quotas.

PLAY BALL: We are out at @Yankees Stadium tonight to spread awareness about how @NYDailyNews owner Alden Global Capital has slashed sports staff since it acquired New York’s Hometown Paper…
How exactly does management expect to make good on this promise when we don’t have a politics OR metro editor and no beat reporters to cover Albany, housing, immigration or the White House?
Give em hell!
We’re taking @politico.com to arbitration this week for its unethical use of AI and we’re asking for your support! bit.ly/PENGuild
Where in the world is Andrew Julien? Our boss hasn’t shown up to bargaining in over THREE YEARS, so we decided to scour the city…
Where Politico's @madinatoure.bsky.social asks a question on Chris' behalf, his name is literally redacted from the transcript.
The mayor is wrong. His private life should be private but in matters of public office and voters, he must answer questions truthfully and transparently
The mayor of New York City, describing the freedom of the press as a “luxury” and intimating that my colleague is doing “something wrong” for asking a question—at a press conference, no less.
Are @c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social questions to hard for our thin skinned mayor?
Mayor Adams might have let our senior City Hall reporter @c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social in the room today — a week after banning him for asking a question — but he doubled down on and refused to call on Chris.
This even after two other reporters yielded their time to Chris.
F**k yeah!!
Three days after we demanded Adams drop the ban, management has caught up. The union won’t stop fighting for
@c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social and demanding Andrew Julien does the same. www.nydailynews.com/2025/06/20/d...
@nydnunion.bsky.social worked very fast to elevate this issue across the NYC press corps. Bravo!
New York Daily News reporter @c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social was barred from future news conferences by Mayor Eric Adams, who accused him of being "disrespectful" after Sommerfeldt on June 17 called out in the press conference to ask Adams a question:
We hand-delivered this to the Mayor's staff moments ago.
Chris was doing his job. The only disrespect was coming from the podium.
We have a free press and no kings in this country. @C_Sommerfeldt is trying uphold those values while @NYCMayor silences press and clings to this office like it's his throne. Shameful.
Mayor Adams banning our reporter in the midst of a press conference is outrageous and an assault on freedom of the press
Mayor Adams hasn't taken question from Daily News reporter
@c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social for months. So Chris called out to get his attention at today's press conference and the mayor tells security to bar him from future press conferences.
Hard to not see that as by design
I stand with the Daily News Union!
