Hey folks,
You may want to consider donating to this GoFundMe campaign to help fellow Guild members at the Chico Enterprise-Record and Paradise Post covering the devastating Camp Fire in California. Ten staffers lost their homes to the fire, and yet they continue to do their jobs. Plus, the Enterprise-Record is owned by Digital First Media, the vulture hedge fund that has ravaged newspapers across the country. DFM also owns the Pioneer Press. This fund was set up by Tony Mulligan, the executive officer of the Denver Guild.

Just an update: We sent a $275 gift certificate from Mineo's Pizza in Squirrel Hill to the Newsroom of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, a pay-it-forward gesture that was afforded our Newsroom after the I-35W bridge collapse. (That gesture was from The Oklahoman.) While P-G journalists tirelessly covered the synagogue shootings, their owners are up to this. BTW, they donated our gift certificate to the Jewish Community Center of Squirrel Hill, continuing to give back to their community, even though they haven't had a raise in nearly 13 years. We stand with them.
