“But what we don’t accept is what the Guild appears to be endorsing: A workplace in which any opinion or disagreement about Times coverage can be recast as a matter of ‘workplace conditions.’… We are journalists, not activists. That line should be clear.”In a response to Tuesday’s letter from dozens of Times journalists, the Guild said in statement to Vanity Fair, “The Guild is committed to representing every member equally and fairly, regardless of reporting assignment. As Semafor’s Max Tani reported, one reporter, Stephanie Saul, wrote in the Times union Slack over the weekend, “Criticism of workplace conditions does not include attacking the journalism of other members. We believe The New York Times should never engage in biased or discriminatory practices of any kind. Factual, accurate journalism that is written, edited, and published in accordance with Times standards does not create a hostile workplace.
