Our union is grateful and relieved to report we have ratified a historic three-year collective-bargaining agreement with Chicago Sun-Times Media. Sun-Times Guild members approved the deal Tuesday in a nearly unanimous vote. 🧵👇.

Solidarity with our colleagues at the Tribune Guild!.
The @chicagotribune is offering buyouts to our journalists. This move by Alden Global Capital, our rapacious ownership group, shows a total lack of vision and respect for the newsroom and the city we serve. We will do whatever we can to support our members. (1/4)

Our members go to great lengths to build trust with our sources and communities and are horrified by this slop syndication. We call on Chicago Public Media management to do everything it can to prevent repeating this disaster in the future.

The fact that it was sixty-plus pages of this “content” is very concerning — primarily for our relationship with our audience but also for our union’s jurisdiction.

We take great pride in the union-produced journalism that goes into the respected pages of our newspaper and on our website. We’re deeply disturbed that AI-generated content was printed alongside our work.

The Sun-Times Guild is aware of the third-party “summer guide” content in the Sunday, May 18 edition of the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper. This was a syndicated section produced externally without the knowledge of the members of our newsroom. 🧵👇.

Guild co-chair Nader Issa said employees have concerns about revenue strategies and were “disturbed” by the “dramatic downsizing.”. Co-chair Mitch Armentrout said many “feel like the powers that be don’t have full familiarity with the Sun-Times.”.
