We recently held a union election at Hearst Connecticut Media, and we learned minutes ago that… WE WON!!! By an overwhelming vote of 68-17, our members voted to unionize as part of @newsguild. It’s a great day for journalism in CT! 🐳🐳🐳

It’s Election Day for the Connecticut News Guild! Ballots are being mailed out today, and there’s no question how our members are voting. 🐳🐳🐳

Minutes ago, dozens of CT News Guild members sent this letter to our managers. We are concerned about Hearst Connecticut’s highly punitive approach to discipline, which has increased since our union drive launched and has left union organizers feeling particularly targeted.
