New York Times Tech Staff Strike, Urge Solidarity Before Election

The New York Times tech staff have initiated a strike over alleged unfair labor practices, urging readers to boycott the Times' games like Wordle in solidarity. The strike, organized by The Times Tech Guild, involves 600 workers and highlights issues such as remote work protections, job security, and pay equity. The NewsGuild of New York has filed charges against the Times for labor law violations, and the strike could impact the Times' election coverage. The union remains open to negotiations, while the Times expresses disappointment over the strike's timing.
