Staffers at NBC News and MSNBC are planning a walk-out in protest of recent workforce cuts, their union says.
In a statement on Wednesday, the NBC Guild said more than 200 workers plan to walk off the job on Thursday, saying the the broadcast giant has “repeatedly broken the law, disrespected the rights of its employees, and illegally terminated hard-working union journalists.”
“For three years we’ve done award-winning work without a contract that would secure fair pay, adequate raises, health & safety standards, dependable benefits, and a viable future,” the union said. “Management wants us to walk back to at-will status, but we’re only moving forward.”
The labor organization plans to hold a protest on Thursday morning outside 30 Rock, the network’s New York headquarters.

Award winning?
Award winning.....everyone gets a trophy.
“”For three years we’ve done award-winning work””
Surrrrre...the kind of ‘awards’ they give each other, at any time, for any reason. I remember when Dan Rather was canned, and, immediately, the media-industrial complex kicked into gear and created a brand new award, just for Dan’o. Probably akin to ‘Lifetime Achievement’ or some such crap.
I’ll say a prayer for you all tonight that you carry through with your threats, for the betterment of America.
Go ahead. No one will notice.
I’ve ZERO, NYET, NO...sympathy.
If you write something every day, you’re a journalist.
NBC pulled the plug on the NBC Sports channel (couldn’t find a buyer) and then the Olympic channel. I’m pretty sure MSNBC doesn’t turn a profit.

Hmm....might be a restrictive clause. They might have a contract but it doesn’t secure fair pay... I’m not sure though.

“NBC, MSNBC staffers threaten walk-out amid layoffs”
wow! now they’re even self-selecting for the NEXT round of layoffs!
“For three years we’ve done award-winning work ...”
All they have done is lie about Donald Trump and support our enemies and disparage everything that is good about the United States.
That would suck if that’s all you had on your resume as a journalist.
The odd thing is, the journalists that said that Russia Gate was a hoax , are castigated by the very same MSM, who lied about Russian Gate .
Maybe (MS)NBC will have to suspend operation. We can only hope.
Yeah turns out "useful idiot" isn't a long-term revenue stream.
Hahahahahaha
“Nobody move, or the sheriff gets it.”
That’s not the original line from the movie. It’s been sanitized for our candy-a55 woke society.
