Proud to stand up to #GannettGreed with this group of News-Press and Naples Daily News journalists! Spent the morning of our @Gannett walkout cleaning up trash and debris on Bonita beach. Tomorrow, it’s back to work, even though we still don’t have a contract.
It’s time for @Gannett to show it supports local journalism in Southwest Florida. On Monday, we are walking out because we are committed to getting a fair contract that will actually allow our journalists to afford to live in the communities whose stories they’ve chosen to tell.
The Naples Daily News and The News-Press are walking out!
On Monday, journalists at our papers will hold a one-day strike. We have spent years trying to get a fair contract from Gannett, as executives hollowed out local newsrooms across the US.
