NUJ targets journalists at DC Thomson

The National Union of Journalists is targeting journalists at DC Thomson, publishers of the Sunday Post.

The union said: “The NUJ is stepping up its campaign to recruit members working for DC Thomson following the dramatic increase in journalists in Dundee joining. Journalists at the Sunday Post in Glasgow and Dundee, and other titles, are clambering to join as a result of proposed changes in their working conditions.” This includes reduced pay for some journalists.
