Reporters and editors from both The Journal and Dow Jones Newswires walked away from their desks and left behind virtually empty newsrooms in New York, Harborside, Boston, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles and Dallas to talk about how to get our message to the new ownership that its “investment” in Dow Jones must include a quality contract for IAPE members. In New York, a large group gathered near the conference room where managers were conducting the morning story meeting, then walked out together en masse to a park across the street. Once there, members signed an oversized congratulations card addressed to Rupert Murdoch telling him it’s time to invest in a quality contract. In the most recent addition to the IAPE rolls, the newly-organized newsroom in Jersey City, participation was almost universal. We need you to add your demonstration of support. New IAPE flyers have been posted on the website, ready to be printed and posted or added to your PC as a screensaver or wallpaper.

If for some reason Media Blog readers feel like showing their solidarity with WSJ/DJ reporters, you can download the anti-Murdoch screen-savers and wallpaper here.

Personally, if I worked for the WSJ, I think with today’s announcement that July ad revenue was down 7%, I just might stick with my flying Windows boxes…
