We are the editorial staff of MSNBC and The Choice. Over 200 of us have signed a union petition to join the . We are proud of our work and our network. We know our voices are key to making MSNBC the best place it can be for both its audience and its workers. (1/4)
We're the editorial staff of MSNBC and The Choice. We're proud of the work we do and we are proud of our network. We know our voices are key to making MSNBC the best news network it can be for both its audience and its workers. We want to support one another and make this an even better place to build a career. That’s why We're organizing to be a part of the WGAE. 

We're organizing because the best way to ensure a fair, equitable, and safe workplace to address the issues that matter to all of us is through collective bargaining. We're organizing to advocate for equal pay for equal work; benefits and work/life balance that meet our families’ needs; diversity at every level of production; clear job descriptions and access to career development; a say in what the post-COVID-19 workplace looks like, and fair compensation for the hours we all spend to deliver the news. 

We're standing up for each other and our work – because this is who we are.

I didn't crunch once, entire production. A couple late nights here and there finishing something up, but COMPLETELY CRUNCH FREE. It is possible. Team wellness lets the creativity flow free.

I'd appreciate ppl sharing this positive. Because it's important. #RatchetPS5 is at 89 avg score & I can't speak for anyone on the team but myself, but I didn't crunch once. 40h weeks the whole time. It is possible to work on a great game w/o suffering. opencritic.com/game/10994/rat

Zach & Jess & the gang are amazing as always. Beef... squashed?

As many of you know we are in a huge feud with @doughboyspod. @nickwiger and @BDayBoysMitch were brave enough to come settle the score in today's ep. It's a bloodbath and does NOT result in a musical about four good friends. art19.com/shows/off-book/

In LA, the bus is currently free. *It does not cost any money to ride the bus this summer!* All you have to do is look at the to see when it's coming and just get on the bus! And trains and are also very affordable
Quote Tweet
Hard to convey what a huge deal this is for LA. Not only is @metrolosangeles moving forward on a fare-free pilot, this amendment by @hollyjmitchell and @mikebonin ensures that buses, which have been effectively fare-free for 14 months, *stay* free until the pilot is in place

As a reporter, I covered trade unions for years, and I know the immense value that organizing and collective bargaining can have for a workplace. I'm thrilled to stand with my colleagues as we join @nyguild and form @theatlunion
