Also, to be clear: the company was free to offer buyouts at ANY time per the terms of the 2019 contract Mr. Soon-Shiong's laywers negotiated and signed. This is not on the Guild. This is on management making cuts in the cruelest way possible.
LA Times was one of the great papers, providing important West Coast coverage. This is deeply saddening. And infuriating.
Deep roots in union busting & gutting too, though.
