Approaching 3 years of bargaining and Merrill Williams still thinks $42,500 is a livable DC salary for her staff. Cathy, please re-read this thread. You have employees struggling to get by while covering a very expensive city.
I attended this event last night (I have before, it's always a great event) — but found it weird that someone right inside the door took these flyers from everyone who walked in with one.
Glad they had stickers so I could wear mine in solidarity with Washingtonian 🌸 reporters!
Now more than ever with so many layoffs in DC journalism, we must uplift the women in the field.
That means a living wage, dignity, respect & a strong union contract for Washingtonian Guild staff who make Washingtonian magazine possible.
If you want to celebrate women in journalism, it's time to pay your female staff a livable wage Merrill Williams.
Solidarity forever with these exceptional journalists ✊
Washingtonian is hosting a Women in Journalism party tonight honoring
Kara Swisher Meridith McGraw @carolleonnig Rachel Scott.
