“Also, Nich is not annoyed at the union — after all, it was only a handful who participated in the stunt — and he can’t wait to have them all back at work soon.” nypost.com/2023/06/13/inside…

Yes, we do!

The Forward has the resources to offer fair pay and benefits — it's time for them to agree to a contract. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9

We want our members to be able to build careers at the Forward, but that requires a fair contract. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9

None of us went into this field for the money. But working for one of the most important media outlets in the Jewish world shouldn't mean sacrificing our basic needs. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9

Many of our members start as interns, a role that can last for as long as a year, at a salary of less than $22,000. This hurts the Forward's ability to recruit a diverse staff. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9

Those of us who stay do so because we care about the work. But that doesn't mean we aren't squeezed by the low pay. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9

The Forward has had tremendous difficulty hiring, with at least one reporter opening posted for more than a year. This hurts our ability to carry out the publication's mission of robustly covering the Jewish community. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9

The Forward also relies on Fellows, year-long contract positions, to carry out the work of regular staff while paying just $37,500 per year. #ContractNow SUPPORT US: forms.gle/f6C74cQPNESq9mqY9
