The New York Times' tech workers went on strike, risking disrupting the Times during the election. AdvertisementThe New York Times' tech workers went on strike Monday morning, threatening to disrupt the publication's operation during the presidential election and its aftermath. The Tech Guild, which represents workers like software developers and data analysts, said members would be picketing outside the Times' New York City headquarters. The Times Guild, which represents non-tech workers, called on Times management to complete a deal by Election Day. It's represented by the NewsGuild of New York, which also represents more than 1,400 newsroom and business employees via The New York Times Guild.

At Community Solutions, the tensions began after the group was awarded a $100 million grant from the MacArthur Foundation. When they informed management of their decision, workers said they were surprised when Community Solutions hired a powerful law firm, Proskauer, to negotiate a contract. (The firm is also representing The New York Times in current contract negotiations with the The New York Times Guild.) “This was a value statement, based on our lived experiences,” he said. The clause that management would like to use, she continued, “includes strong anti-discrimination language that is nearly identical to other collective bargaining agreements negotiated by the same union.”
Elon Musk joked that the New York Times union strike on Thursday is "Woke v Woke." New York Times staffers are staging a 24-hour walkout to protest over pay. The contract between the Times and the Times' Guild expired in March 2021 and over 40 bargaining sessions have been held since, the Times reported. Musk released his "Twitter Files" on Friday which showed internal communications between the 2020 Biden presidential campaign and Twitter executives. Musk responded: "That is because The New York Times has become, for all intents and purposes, an unregistered lobbying firm for far left politicians."
Will reporters at The New York Times really go on strike? The idea, unthinkable just a few months ago, is now on the lips of New York Times Guild members as the union's contract negotiations with management heat up. New York Times reporters have walked off the job before, like as part of a 1962-1963 citywide newspaper strike. But Robles said union members are upset that the Times' strong business footing has not translated into better pay. (The Times spokesperson countered that the paper was not seeing record profits).

New York Times reporters have walked off the job before, like as part of a 1962-1963 citywide newspaper strike. The union at Wirecutter, the reviews site owned by the New York Times, walked off the job during the Black Friday shopping period last year, for instance. But Robles said union members are upset that the Times' strong business footing has not translated into better pay.
