PD to Guild: Vote "Yes" or we lay off another 80


Cleveland Plain Dealer Guild members will vote with a gun to their heads Tuesday: Approve a new contract that allows only 5 more layoffs beyond the 58 who will be terminated in 2013 or have the company eliminate an additional 80 Guild members if the agreement is rejected.  

The six-year contract would reinstate two-thirds of the 12% cutback approved in 2009 in return for a guarantee of no layoffs. The PD planned to make the 58 cuts after the no-layoffs contract expires Jan. 31.
