Around 160 editorial jobs from Time in the US could be sent overseas. The Newspaper Guild of New York says the company wants the ability to outsource that number of editorial jobs abroad.
The Guild has been locked in an 18-month-long contract negotiation with America’s largest magazine publisher, owner of People,Sports Illustrated and InStyle, among others, Adage reports.
Newspaper Guild President Bill O'Meara said in a statement that Time Inc.'s proposal to hollow out its own company “is simply not acceptable."
He went on, "Management wants the ability to send 160 editorial jobs overseas, which would be a massive blow to some of the nation's most important and respected magazines."
A Time Inc. spokesman declined to comment to AdAge.

How on earth can a person not living in the United States editorialize on things that happen inside the United states with any accuracy whatsoever?
ReplyDeleteHere's a good reason NOT to pick up any of these pieces of litter!
Most of the editorials from Time, Inc. lead me to believe the writers are not living in this country anyway. Out of touch.
ReplyDeleteGreat opportunity for new college graduates if they're smart enough to take advantage.
