NewsGuild-CWA members at NBC are fighting back after the company
abruptly and illegally laid off several union journalists without
providing any advance notice or rationale. Management is also
attempting to remove msnbc.com staffers from the union, informing them
that they are no longer “part of the Guild” without engaging in negotiations with the union. In response, the union filed an unfair
labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board and held
an all-hands union meeting. “This clear violation of the law is yet
another brazen example of NBC attempting to strip its workers of their
right to organize and bargain together,” said the union in a
statement. The workers plan to take further collective action against management’s illegal actions to demand justice and respect for their
laid off coworkers and to swiftly reach an agreement on a first
contract with the company.
