Beyond proud to be part this.

a thrill to be a part of the supergroup of unions fighting for better worker protections against AI in the newsroom!

Yesterday, WGAE and allies traveled to Albany to lobby for the NY FAIR News Act — real protections for journalists and the public against unchecked AI in newsrooms. Joined by @sagaftra.org, @nyguild.bsky.social, and DGA, we met with legislators to encourage the passage of the #NYFAIRNewsAct ✊

As biologist M. Picard wrote in the June 2025 issue of Scientific American, “Mitochondria communicate, both within their own cells and among other cells, reaching out to support one another in times of need and generally helping the community flourish.” We’re proud to help @sciam.bsky.social thrive!

Why did the Scientific American union choose mitochondria as our symbol? A key part of working at @sciam.bsky.social is caring about getting good science to people. To that end, please enjoy some mitochondria fun facts! 1/🧵

Yesterday, our members chanted and marched through @propublica.org’s NYC office demanding a fair contract now. We delivered a stack of more than 4,000 petition signatures and 300 comments from our supporters to management.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Day! Today we’re celebrating the educators who make our schools and communities stronger every day—the ones who show up, build connection and help students see what’s possible. Thank you for all you do. 💙

Read the WGAE and @wgawest.bsky.social Statement on the Warner Bros. Discovery Shareholder Vote to Approve Paramount Merger

Thank you @mayor.nyc.gov for joining the call to #BlockTheMerger. The Warner Bros./Paramount merger will hurt entertainment and media workers, raise prices for consumers, and stifle independent journalism, and it must be stopped.

Congratulations to our members at Lucky 8! The producers behind shows like "The Food That Built America" and "60 days in" unanimously ratified their first union contract. Highlights include increases to minimum rates, PTO and portable healthcare.

Hello, Bluesky! We, the staff of Scientific American, are pleased to announce we have formed a union with @wgaeast.bsky.social. Just as mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell, we are the powerhouse of the publication, and we’re excited to have a new way to contribute to its success.

Welcome, @sciamunion.bsky.social! Next step, voluntary recognition 💪
