Globe Union Caves, Votes to Accept $10M in Cuts

The Boston Globe's biggest union has ended a four-month battle with the New York Times company and voted to accept $10 million in pay and benefit cuts, the Boston Herald reports. Union members—who have been living with a 23% pay cut since rejecting an 8.3% decrease last month—approved a 5.9% wage slice by a wide margin. The deal also includes 8 unpaid work days, a pension freeze and no health insurance for retirees.
