In another blistering shot at New York Times Co. Chairman Arthur
“Pinch” Sulzberger, the Newspaper Guild has released a slick video in
which newsroom veterans blast the paper’s plan to freeze the pension
plan and dole out minuscule pay hikes.
New York Times Co. Chairman Arthur “Pinch” Sulzberger |
The nearly six-minute
video comes as representatives of the Times and the Guild are slated to
meet today in a bid to try and make some progress in the talks.
The unionized reporters and editors at the Times have been without a contract for more than a year.
The
Times, after initially demanding a three-year wage freeze, is now
offering a one-year freeze and 1 percent pay hikes in years two and
three.
