Management Responds...
The language is starting to get awfully complicated, but the way we understand it Philadelphia Media Holdings has supplied the Guild with a modified proposal in response to the union's counter proposal.
The upshot is that this thing is still going on and figures to be for some time yet. The Guild's negotiating team is currently holed up at the Union hall, figuring out how they're going to respond to management's latest offering.
"I have to think this is going to be settled, one way or another, this week," says Guild spokesman Stu Bykofsky, who supplied all of the above information.
Translation: they'll either strike or reach a tentative agreement on a deal. Or not. This negotiation has a life of its own.
The pension has been the sole remaining strike-worthy issue for negotiators since the fourth of December.
