Hundreds of journalists at the New York Times went on strike Thursday, their union announced, after bargaining over their contract fell through Wednesday.
The historic 24-hour walkout, which reportedly began at midnight Thursday, represents the first strike of its kind at the newspaper in more than 40 years.
“Today we were ready to work for as long as it took to reach a fair deal, but management walked away from the table with five hours to go,” the NYT Guild tweeted Wednesday night. “It’s official: @NYTimesGuild members are walking out for 24 hours on Thursday. We know what we’re worth,” the union said.

Bless their wonderful souls. Also REALLY bad timing.

NYT versus union. I’m rooting for mutual annihilation with maximized collateral. A giant noisome pit opening up and swallowing them both along with all associates/minions/sympathizers of either party.
Am I asking too much?

I support this union action fully, stay away until the billionaire known for his great relationships with media labor unions gives everything your little liberal hearts desire.

There are no NYT journalists, just propaganda peddlers.

How will the members be able to walk a picket line without protection from the homeless? Maybe there is a digital version of a picket sign so as to make for a hands free experience and to distinguish from card board ones? “Will code for food.”
