"It's nerve wracking"
Just spoke to Stephan Salisbury, who echoes most of what we're hearing from the newsroom. "No one wants a strike," he says. "And that's across the board in this newsroom. But the pension issue has really galvanized the members, so that we are willing to support a strike if it comes to that."
Salisbury also said that sitting around waiting for answers is as difficult as it sounds. "They're talking, and as long as they're talking there's reason for optimism," he says. "But the wait—it's nerve wracking. There's no question about it."
The rest of what we're hearing is that a lot of younger staffers would rather not strike over the pension fund, but if their leadership calls for a strike they'll honor it.
