In one of Ted Sarandos’ statements on Friday about his streamer’s proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, the Netflix co-CEO proclaimed that the $82.7 billion deal would be “pro-worker.”

Solidarity with our @huffpostunion.bsky.social members in negotiations. We won’t accept less than a fair contract.

It's simple — @propublica.org workers should not be replaced by artificial intelligence. Our contract proposal specifically says that generative artificial intelligence ("GAI") should not be used to replace employees. Management struck out this entire section in their response to our proposal.

10 years after first organizing, it's time to bargain for our fourth contract. We're prepared, we're united and we're locked in.

Along with our actions today, @newsguild.org is hosting a town hall tonight. It's not too late to sign up! us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
