As members of the Writers Guild of America, East (WGAE) and writers/producers working with ViacomCBS, we are proud to support our fellow union members at CBSN who are negotiating their first union contract. They have made reasonable proposals to ensure fair working conditions and to protect the integrity of their bargaining unit. We call on CBS to respond accordingly and reach an agreement that respects the terrific work of the writers, producers, and graphic artists at CBSN. It has been a tumultuous few years at CBS, but we are proud of the incredible work of WGAE members at CBS News and their dedication to a fair workplace—now it’s time for their colleagues at CBSN to have their voices heard. The staff at CBSN have shown tremendous courage to stand up for one another and we have their back—it’s time for a fair contract.
