The News Guild of New York doesn’t stop at traditional newsrooms. The union continues to organize workers from the furthest corners of the media and entertainment realms, including tech workers and writers at the fluffiest of magazines:
- Condé Nast voluntarily recognized the News Guild of New York after 500 staffers (and 100 subcontractors) organized at numerous publications, including GQ, Vanity Fair, Architectural Digest, Vogue, Bon Appétit, and more. The union now represents workers from all of Condé Nast’s brands.
- The Atlantic’s tech and business workers organized with (and acquired voluntary recognition of) the News Guild of New York, which already represents editorial staffers at the publication. These workers followed on the heels of their New York Times counterparts joining the union earlier this year.
- Meta (previously Facebook Inc.) service workers (janitors, drivers, and cafeteria workers) marched at the company’s headquarters in Menlo Park, California ahead of layoffs, both of the real and rumored varieties. The SEIU and Teamsters Joint Council 7 both made their presences known at the gathering.
