The Trump administration is making employers think they can ignore their legal obligations and trample on the rights of workers.

Yesterday, Staffers at Condé Nast announced that they are forming a company-wide union with the NewsGuild of New York, covering more than five hundred staffers across a dozen titles.

New York Times Co. technology employees plan to walk off the job Wednesday over what they say are the newspaper publisher’s illegal efforts to stymie their unionization campaign.

The organizing effort at the century-old tabloid comes roughly 25 years after its editorial union was effectively broken.

The victory at the New Yorker caused a domino effect: the unions at Wirecutter, Buzzfeed News, and Ziff Davis have now also secured just cause, proving that using power builds power.

The 2019 trend of newsrooms unionizing shows no sign of running out of steam as a new year begins.The latest is Sports Illustrated, with the majority of its staff revealing today that they intend to form a union with the NewsGuild of New York
