For 17 years, the journalists and media workers of the Albany Newspaper Guild have been working without a contract at the Times Union.

They haven’t spoken about their fight publicly until now.

On the latest Union Strong Podcast, we’re diving into their story: what it means to report the news that so many rely on while facing your own uncertainty, why this contract fight has stretched on for nearly two decades, and what’s at stake, not just for these journalists, but for the future of local news.

In an interview with Wendy Liberatore, the president of the Albany Newspaper Guild, we gain insight into the ongoing contract dispute and its broader implications.
