NABET-CWA Members Fight for Three Contracts with One March

A NABET-CWA poster highlights members' New York City march on Wednesday to NBC, ABC and a Verizon store.

New York City NABET-CWA members had a busy morning Wednesday as they hosted a "combined mobilization rally" that made appearances outside the Today Show and Good Morning America, with a stop in between at a midtown Verizon Wireless store.

CWA Local 1101 members joined NABET locals 51011, representing NBC workers, and 51016, representing ABC. Members are fighting for fair contracts at both networks, which conveniently tape their morning shows in street-level studios with big windows.

Pouring rain didn't dampen the enthusiasm, Local 51011 President Thomas Cappo said. "Yes, we got wet, but a good time was had by all."
