There are so many talented, curious, hardworking people who want to be journalists and can’t be, and it really puzzles me that so many of the very few remaining jobs in this industry go to people who seem completely averse to actually writing and reporting.

As a proud ProPublica alum I am disappointed to see how management is burning goodwill with their excellent staff and dedicated readers. The Guild's demands are reasonable and will ensure that PP produces excellent work for years to come.

I love this organization and hope management can come to the table with a real willingness to reach a deal. Like all of us at ProPublica, I would much rather be focused on doing the journalism than negotiating our first contract.
