EMANUEL WALLACE

 

50 Years of Union Busting
in
Cleveland

Prospect Writing Fellow Marsha Brown reports on the end of union
representation at the Plain Dealer, Cleveland's daily newspaper since
1842. In case you missed this piece published in June, Brown looks at
how Advance Publications created a union-busting model for media
conglomerates to emulate, honed through a century of hostility to labor.

Advance Publications is privately held, with principal ownership resting
with the heirs of 20th century media mogul Samuel I. Newhouse. In
addition to newspapers, it owns Condé Nast (publisher of Vogue, Vanity
Fair and The New Yorker, among others), along with large stakes in
Discovery, Inc., and social media site Reddit.

This is the story of how Advance destroyed the nation's oldest
newspaper union, deeply wounding Cleveland's daily in the process.
