Striking Washington Post Journos Beg Public To Not Read Newspaper
< < Go Back
Journalists at the left-wing Washington Post walked off the job to begin a 24-hour strike Thursday while issuing a plea to the general public for support.
The striking employees have planned a picket and rally outside the Post’s downtown Washington office to bring attention to their cause.
In the process they have asked the general public to observe a simple request: do not read the newspaper or website for the duration of the industrial action, the Hill reports.
As Breitbart News reported, the strike at the far-left outlet comes after 18 months of failed talks to reach a new deal covering pay, remote work, and other conditions — and after the daily, owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, warned more layoffs were possible.
