Enquirer Election Lost By Guild
The Cincinnati Newspaper Guild lost an election at the Enquirer last week after management signaled readiness to pay the Editorial Employer Professional Association a higher rate. The EEEPA promised the high rate but would require the Guild to fight for any increase and retroactivity, while a Guild victory would forgo retroactive pay. The EEEPA has long negotiated substandard contracts, worsening the Guild's effort to raise standards for Cincinnati newspaper workers. EEEPA minimums for reporters are $75 a week versus the Guild’s $85 minimum.
