Late last week, employees at KCBS-AM in San Francisco voted in favor of joining SAG-AFTRA. Production assistants, writers, and newsroom assistants will join the union with an existing bargaining unit of editors at the all-news station. Editor and shop steward Joe Rogers said, “Our writers, production assistants, and newsroom assistants have shown a lot of courage and determination. Because of their vote for SAG-AFTRA, the entire KCBS news team now stands united at a time when the company is contemplating drastic changes in how this station gathers and reports the news.”
