Condé Union@condeunion.bsky.social · 9mo ago

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

Statement from The NewsGuild of New York and Condé United on illegal firing of four union leaders who demanded answers about this week’s layoffs at Teen Vogue, other brands Late Wednesday night, Condé Nast’s VP of Labor Relations notified the Guild that the Company was immediately terminating four Condé United leaders for engaging in the protected concerted activity of gathering in their 1 World Trade Center office to demand answers on this week’s abrupt layoffs at multiple brands including WIRED and the consolidation at Teen Vogue. These egregious terminations are a flagrant breach of the Just Cause terms of our contract and an unprecedented violation of their federally protected rights as union members to participate in a collective action. Through these illegal terminations, Condé Nast management is attempting to intimidate and silence our members' advocacy for the courageous cultural and political journalism of Teen Vogue, as well as diverting attention away from the obvious lack of corporate leadership at the company. Condé United members illegally fired are: Alma Avalle: Writer, digital producer at Bon Appetit; NewsGuild of New York first vice president, trans activist, and union leader Jake Lahut: Wired senior reporter covering the Trump White House Jasper Lo: Senior fact checker at The New Yorker and US Army veteran: outgoing first vice chair of The New Yorker Union Ben Dewey: Videographer at Condé Nast Entertainment, former vice chair of the CNE unit “Management’s attempt at union-busting, using intimidation and grossly illegal tactics to try to suppress protected union activity, will not stand,” said Susan DeCarava, president of The NewsGuild of New York. “The NewsGuild of New York has zero tolerance for bad bosses who harass, target and disrespect our fellow Guild members. We represent nearly 6,000 media workers across the tri-state area and we stand firmly in solidarity, ready to fight for the rights of our members illegally fired from their jobs at …

Vox Media has announced yet another round of layoffs at Eater, this time coming as the publication is celebrating its 20th anniversary. We stand in solidarity with our @voxmediaunion.bsky.social colleagues impacted by these devastating cuts.

Vox Media Union statement on today's devastating round of layoffs at Eater. We stand with all of our wonderful colleagues. #solidarityforever #unionstrong #1u

Eater layoffs statement Today, 15 members of the Vox Media Union working at Eater were notified without warning that their jobs were being eliminated as part of a major restructuring of the 20-year-old brand. This was especially shocking considering that Vox Media CEO Jim Bankoff told Puck’s Dylan Byers just last week that he did not anticipate any impending layoffs at the company. But, of course, we’ve learned that we cannot trust Jim Bankoff’s word when it comes to layoffs. This is the second major round of layoffs at Eater this year, following a round earlier this year that decimated Eater’s award-winning cities network. To be abundantly clear: these layoffs are a gut-job, one that eliminates roughly a third of Eater’s union jobs. It is also a cowardly capitulation to the fallacious insistence that generative AI is the future of search and publishing. We are devastated that our colleagues have lost their jobs, and we are deeply worried about the future sustainability of Eater without them. Eater is currently in the midst of celebrating its 20th anniversary, and right now, there is not much to celebrate. We will have more information forthcoming about ways to support our laid-off colleagues in the coming days. Solidarity forever, The Vox Media Union Committees

Jaya Saxena@jayasaxena.com · last yr.

What happened with Polygon today is so fucked. Vox Media has made some atrocious decisions in my six years here but this is really something else. And to do this in the middle of us bargaining a new union contract, where they scold us for asking for better protections, is just unconscionable.

IT’S OFFICIAL! Today, members of @nymagunion.bsky.social voted to ratify our second contract, securing salary and wage increases for the entire unit as well as limits on the company’s use of AI. ✊

📣📣WE HAVE A DEAL!📣📣 Last week, @nymagunion.bsky.social reached a tentative agreement with New York Magazine and Vox Media. We could not be prouder of our members who made it clear they were ready to withhold their labor if Vox Media didn’t meet them with a fair contract.

Solidarity with our colleagues at SB Nation who were impacted by this latest round of layoffs.

Vox Media Union@voxmediaunion.bsky.social · 2y ago

We are extremely disappointed with SB Nation's decision to layoff staff at its popular YouTube hub Secret Base. Not only is this a blow to a talented team, it undercuts the creator-driven and subscription-driven models of sustainability that Vox Media has been trying to cultivate. We must do better.

Today, the Vox Media Union learned three members at SB Nation’s Secret Base team have been let go, marking the third consecutive month of layoffs at Vox Media-owned brands. As we and our colleagues at New York Magazine continue to make strides for our workers through bargaining, the company continues its death-by-a-thousand-cuts approach. These short-sighted actions from management have gutted our newsrooms and added to the ongoing uncertainty in the media industry. It is devastating to these individuals, and to our remaining staff, who are given few answers as to how downsizing is a sustainable practice moving forward. Secret Base has been creator-led and personality-driven from its inception, exemplified by their successful community-funded Patreon, Top Secret Base. It will not be the same without these hard-working, experienced, smart, talented, and exceptionally creative employees. It is insulting to them for the company to describe these cuts as “necessary.” The Writers Guild of America East and Vox Media Union will do everything we can to help and support the colleagues who are leaving us, just as we have supported our colleagues impacted by previous layoffs around the company. We continue the fight for transparency, equity, and protections in bargaining, where we set new standards for workers in the entire digital media industry.

Thank you to our union organizers who really brought the necessary heat to make sure we are protected and properly compensated. Thank you to the readers who signed the pledge for supporting us — that was vital to getting this deal. I am so damn happy.

cannot thank our union organizers enough for their endless hard work, but also enormous thanks go to everyone who supported our walkout pledge - showing up to negotation with a wall of staffers and readers all willing to support the union's efforts is 100% the reason this agreement exists

5,000 @nymag.com readers & counting have told Vox Media they plan to stand with @nymagunion.bsky.social if we walk out. Tomorrow we're back in bargaining. The time for a fair deal is now. If you haven’t signed, tell Vox you support New York’s 150 union members: nymagunion.org/reader-pledge

Don't be lowbrow despicable. Stand with the New York Union by refusing to cross the digital picket line.
