Statement from The NewsGuild of New York and Condé United on illegal firing of four union leaders who demanded answers about this week’s layoffs at Teen Vogue, other brands Late Wednesday night, Condé Nast’s VP of Labor Relations notified the Guild that the Company was immediately terminating four Condé United leaders for engaging in the protected concerted activity of gathering in their 1 World Trade Center office to demand answers on this week’s abrupt layoffs at multiple brands including WIRED and the consolidation at Teen Vogue. These egregious terminations are a flagrant breach of the Just Cause terms of our contract and an unprecedented violation of their federally protected rights as union members to participate in a collective action. Through these illegal terminations, Condé Nast management is attempting to intimidate and silence our members' advocacy for the courageous cultural and political journalism of Teen Vogue, as well as diverting attention away from the obvious lack of corporate leadership at the company. Condé United members illegally fired are: Alma Avalle: Writer, digital producer at Bon Appetit; NewsGuild of New York first vice president, trans activist, and union leader Jake Lahut: Wired senior reporter covering the Trump White House Jasper Lo: Senior fact checker at The New Yorker and US Army veteran: outgoing first vice chair of The New Yorker Union Ben Dewey: Videographer at Condé Nast Entertainment, former vice chair of the CNE unit “Management’s attempt at union-busting, using intimidation and grossly illegal tactics to try to suppress protected union activity, will not stand,” said Susan DeCarava, president of The NewsGuild of New York. “The NewsGuild of New York has zero tolerance for bad bosses who harass, target and disrespect our fellow Guild members. We represent nearly 6,000 media workers across the tri-state area and we stand firmly in solidarity, ready to fight for the rights of our members illegally fired from their jobs at …

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee.

I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Horror Fiction’s It Girl Gretchen Felker-Martin Doesn’t Care if You Like Her The ‘Black Flame’ author talks to Them about queer horror, getting dropped by DC Comics, and the perils of being hyperonline.

Really proud of this profile Samantha Riedel wrote of me in THEM. We talked about BLACK FLAME, DC comics firing me, Palestine, and real-life community as it relates to the internet.

Been thinking about what i call the "anti trans style guide" that conservatives use as a foil to the newer, more sensitive language that's taken hold. it's essentially a total remaking of language to dehumanize trans people but it's more tortured and annoying than any "woke" language ever was

The White House Responded to Ariana Grande's Trans Rights Post Exactly How You'd Expect The Trump administration used the pop star's own lyrics in its reply.

Ariana Grande puts money behind her trans-community support and donald is still a c*nt

that's all.

ty @jamesfactora.bsky.social for keeping us fed!

thank you so much!

“Despite that ever-present fear, Tran is ready to share her queerness with the world - and she's ready to share that she has a girlfriend, too. They've been together for two years, but from spending a brief amount of time around the couple, you'd think they were still in the honeymoon phase. Even just the question of how long they've been together makes Tran blush and giggle; during a moment of downtime on the day of our photoshoot, the actor perches in her girlfriend's lap, arms wrapped around her shoulders. Tran doesn't want to identify her girlfriend yet, since she lives a relatively normal life, and they'd like to keep it that way.”
