Idaho Statesman staffers go on strike
BOISE — More than a dozen members of the Idaho Statesman picketed outside their Boise office Tuesday in a one-day strike as union members of the Idaho NewsGuild walked off the job over what they described as a yearlong stalemate in contract negotiations with publishing company McClatchy Media.
The reporters, photographers and columnists present for the strike marched up and down Park Boulevard, the street outside the Idaho Statesman office, with signs that read "AI guardrails now," "Honk if you hate AI," and "Idaho Strikesman." The group also led chants of "Hey, hey, ho, ho! AI slop has got to go" and called for a fair contract.
