One month after its employees voted to unionize, the Salon Media Group, a digital media pioneer and a stalwart of the progressive press, has still refused to recognize the move. Sources close to the situation tell International Business Times that Salon’s management on Thursday approached labor with a counter offer to their request to unionize that workers did not take seriously.
The one-month mark came in the same week that the Guardian US announced it had swiftly recognized the union at its own shop under the auspices of the News Media Guild. In June, Gawker Media successfully unionized with the Writers Guild of America, East, which the staffers at Salon cited as a catalyst for their own efforts to organize later that month.
