More to come, but we're thrilled to announce that we've reached a tentative agreement. We're proud to bring this to our unit for ratification. ✊

The Onion Union's contract expires at midnight tonight. We are committed to bargaining in good faith and securing a fair contract for our talented and hardworking members.

With three days left of bargaining, management refused to be physically present during in-person sessions. We can think of no greater indignity than having to look employees in the eye when they are nothing more than faceless numbers representing wasted cost on a spreadsheet.

Today, The Onion Union and its allies distributed flyers outside our Chicago, NYC, and LA offices. We regret wasting time in the physical world when we should be creating digital content to be clogged with ads and SEO terms designed to game search engines.

As America's Finest News Source for the past 258 years, The Onion could not have made it here without the managerial prowess of G/O Media, whose trailblazing strategy of blanketing webpages in blaring advertisements has led the digital media industry to where it stands today.

The Onion has long reported on the many valuable contributions of CEOs within their respective industries. As we bargain for a new contract, we can't help but be reminded of the many great CEOs who have led the way with their cruelty, greed, and bloodlust.
