NBC News staffers unionize, say company mishandled sexual misconduct claims
Employees of NBC’s digital news consortium on Wednesday announced their plan to form a union in an effort to “build a more equitable workplace” and ensure their right to report stories that might show their company in a negative light.
“Management has indicated they are committed to addressing some of these issues—ending nine-hour working shifts, adjusting weekend staffing, increasing standard vacation time, and implementing select pay raises,” the release stated. “While we strongly welcome any steps forward, we want to cement these adjustments into an enforceable contract.”
Misconduct claims at the network’s news division have been given renewed attention this month in the wake of Ronan Farrow’s new book, “Catch and Kill.” Farrow left NBC News in 2017 to join The New Yorker, which published his months-long investigation into sexual abuse allegations against disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
