      Laid-off IBT reporters asked @IBTMedia mgmt for respectable severance terms. Mgmt refused. Now we’re laying out our case publicly. #IBTWTF

      .@IBTMedia offered 1 week pay per year of service. Not a penny for someone who worked there 11 months. No payout for accrued PTO. #IBTWTF

      It’s not just awful severance. Many international employees and freelancers haven’t been paid in months. These people have families. #IBTWTF

          Does IBT have the money? Well they had $1.3m to give to religious institution Olivet University in FY 2014. #IBTWTFpic.twitter.com/uKV559pJjp

          It's nearly impossible to know how much money has flowed from @IBTMedia to religious orgs that IBT mgmt are involved in. #IBTWTF

          One way to find out: Request Olivet University’s 990 from FY 2015--which they haven’t released yet. Perhaps they need a reminder. #IBTWTF

          IBT has the money. They scrimp by outsourcing to Bangalore (as they’ve done for years). #InternationalBangaloreTimeshttp://www.politico.com/media/story/2016/07/after-us-layoffs-ibt-looks-to-grow-bangalore-team-004644 …

          Like other former IBT reporters, I’m proud of the work I did there. But our sudden termination and minimal severance are an insult. #IBTWTF

          More importantly, many fmr IBT/Newsweek colleagues haven't been paid for work they did. This is unacceptable. IBT, pay your writers. #IBTWTF
