On the Vox Media “Blackout”
Unbeknownst to me or any of the staff at TCB, the Vox Media Union was in negotiations with Vox, the parent company of SB Nation and TCB, over higher wages. Yesterday, quite abruptly and without prior warning, the union broke off negotiations, and at least some within the union called for a “blackout” by SB Nation sites as a protest against Vox Media.
I first heard about this last night during the Astros exciting extra-inning baseball game while I was writing an article and taking notes for the recap.
