The NewsGuild of New York, Ziff Davis Creators Guild Welcomes New Members CNET and ZDNet

Editorial workers at CNET and ZDNet are joining The NewsGuild of New York as members of the Ziff Davis Creators Guild (ZDCG).

Late last year, Ziff Davis acquired both websites, which cover technology, reviews and beyond. CNET and ZDNet workers will be covered under ZDCG’s current contract, ratified last summer. Under the site’s former owner, Red Ventures, CNET content creators previously unionized as the CNET Media Workers Union affiliated with the Writers Guild of America East.

“We’re thrilled that CNET and ZDNET folks will be joining us,” said Anna Iovine, unit chair of the Ziff Davis Creators Guild, which includes journalists at Lifehacker, Mashable, and PCMag. “They’ll be protected under just cause with no exceptions, along with the many other protections in our contract, and will receive guaranteed raises very soon.” Read more here.
