My newspaper company, @tribpub, just announced that that stockholders are getting another special dividend. As part of the email: “The ability to hire and retain top talent remains one of our top priorities.”....

Tribune has demonstrated over and over again that this is not true. My husband and I, who both work at the Morning Call, are facing 6.4 percent higher health care costs this year. No annual raises in as long as we've been here (15 for me). ..

We have a child going to college. And we wonder how we'll afford that. So I really don't want to hear empty words about how much Tribune values staff retention and recruitment. Clearly that's for execs only. ..

The best thing I ever did as a journalist is to help unionize my newsroom and I will continue to fight for our staff and for those groups around the country that want to unionize. My DM is wide open #unionstrong @CWAUnion @news_guild @gaufre @PhillyNewsGuild
