The Nation Signs 6-Year Deal With NewsGuild
It includes four months of paid paternal leave, regardless of gender.
The Nation and its union—The NewsGuild of New York—have signed a new, six-year contract. The deal involves 25 percent raises over the course of the contract and four months of paid paternal leave, regardless of gender.
