Journalists at The Roanoke Times and Laker Weekly have voted to ratify a contract with owner Lee Enterprises. The vote was 37 to 1.
The contract contains employee pay raises, stronger severance protections and a step toward diverse hiring, says the Timesland News Guild.
Members of the Timesland bargaining committee spent eight months negotiating with Lee, says the union.
The contract will be in effect for one year.
The newsroom union formed in 2020.
