We joined the demonstration on April 9, "Our time is now." Here's why.

There is no time for waiting .

It 'time for our generation to make space and raise your voice.

We are a generation precarious unemployed, underpaid or forced to work free, invisible, condemned to a long dependency on parents. The precarious life is for us, everyday without rights: the right to study the right to housing, income to health, the ability to realize their own emotional happiness. Especially for young women, which weighs the blackmail of a conflict between work and life.

We are no longer willing to live in a country as profoundly unfair.

Our time is now , life will not wait. All the streets April 9.

www.ilnostrotempoeadesso.it

For several days running on an Internet call, as coordination Printing Errors , we decided to sign with conviction and we see among the first signatories. It was promoted by young workers in different categories: call-center operators, architects, academics, artisans of the show, teachers. And journalists like us.

We signed this appeal because this group of people united by the same branding: a precarious professional that is blocking our lives, hindering our ability to design our future constructively, but also limits any possible realization in the present.

Many people think that journalists are a protected category, "a caste of privileged people" who have all, in equal measure, access to contracts armored and well-paid, comfortable health insurance, social security safety nets and soft iron . When you read our signatures at the end of an article or append to a TV service, you probably imagine yourself sitting at your desk, writing news in front of a computer generation, with a phone company in his hands. Or, more romantically, envoys of the road, with the production of camera in one hand and suitcase in the other, with the ticket inside the train and the hotel voucher paid by our office in the draft.

But the reality, at least for us insecure, is another. And if April 9, we decided to take to the streets because we want to tell everyone is a series of news that affect us that hard to read in our newspapers.

***

We report, for example, that editors are full of workers fixed-CoCoCo and freelancers who do the same work as colleagues for an indefinite period, with contracts or even more disadvantageous "to the piece." These contracts often do not reach 1000 euro per month, are paid or "lump sum" arbitrary and irregular intervals.

We recall that the temporary contracts were the first to go when companies ended up in a state of crisis, that our union moved a finger to prevent it and no one security tool remotely similar to the case Integration guaranteed colleagues were even suggested for us.

We want you to know that our social security fund, the Inpgi provides social safety nets such as unemployment benefits and the disease only for those who have the privilege of working under the umbrella of the collective national journalism (Cnlg), an instrument always more rare, while dropping on the ground without a parachute, workers who remain on the street at the end of a CoCoCo or collaboration "a piece" with regular contributions.

Speaking of "cooperation to the piece, we want to publicly reveal that the rates at which employees are often forced to sell their products or services are absurdly inadequate, also established in major publications produced by domestic publishers or television productions aired on major networks generalist. For print media, for example, speak of an average of 20-25 € to published article, often without any sort of bonus or reimbursement of expenses, to make it almost impossible, even with diligent work and daily life, put together at the end of the month a "salary" decent or similar to the previous month. Here also, our union, in place to ensure fair and claim compensation for all, often prefer to look the other way.

We want to uncover the fraud hidden behind the system of so-sponsored "Schools of journalism," now means almost exclusively on the practitioner, were offered as a prelude to the stable and secure, instead of breeding more and more highly skilled unemployed or unpaid interns.

***

If we cross our arms, without giving in to blackmail to stay in the system unsustainable conditions, many pages remain blank, many radio news would fill several minutes of silence and television services should not be on the air. In short, do not go much information to the public and therefore would be in danger not only our right to decent work, but also the right of everyone to information free and complete.

***

's why we ask all journalists precarious and all the colleagues who support our reasons for taking to the streets with us, April 9. Together with the CGIL, researchers and university fellows renewed sobs, workers "to coin" the world of entertainment and culture to second generation migrants in search of integration and equality, temporary workers and call centers.

Why are familiar with the abuses to which they are forced too, in areas that seemed so different from ours, and because only building across the board and participated in a firm and lasting "net generation" we can really start to change things and to resume, in one fell swoop, today and tomorrow that we all deserve.

"I, Franco Berardi, precarious professor of sociology of communication, I decided that March 14th, I will devote the beginning of my course at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera where I teach, the only urgent matter these days: how can we defend the social civilization of financial capital from violence, how can you defend the dignity of the government mafia whoremongers, how can the new generation free from the hell of misery precarious?

Stomach Ache That Lasts For Days

support the campaign "do not work for less than 50 €"

from the Social Editor

Paid four cents and threatened journalists rebel

A survey on the unacceptable conditions in which young people work freelance and casual workers born the campaign 'Do not work for less than 50 €', taking example from the strike of the Africans against the foremen

Rome - Journalists are targeted by the editors who are afraid of losing their jobs if they ask for decent conditions and respect for their rights. Paid just two or three euro to article by important national newspapers. Paid or not paid at all for pennies on rigaggio line in the southern regions where he writes about mafia. It denounced the dramatic truth through the campaign "do not work for less than 50 €" which has collected the testimonies of some young journalists. A bleak picture emerges from Trieste to the tip of the boot.

The board promoted by "Terrelibere.org" trying to break through the wall of silence that surrounds the precariousness and exploitation of employees in newsrooms. "Another year to € 200 per month I do not know if I can stand," say the journalists who have decided to write their own history. And again: "paid for 10 years 3 € gross per piece (2.50 € payroll) and not only short jumps also real services after working all day. In ten years only one substitution, "or" I worked until the ninth month of pregnancy with the PC on the knees because the chair was uncomfortable and my belly bumping against my desk. And I've been told by my bosses: I can not pierce a piece of news because you're giving birth. "Many times you work without even knowing if and how much you will be paid. This situation is transforming in the Italian journalists 'stuff for the rich' because only those with a wealthy family behind that covers all expenses can afford to be a journalist.

"I do not work for less than 50 euro" is the campaign of the journalists who refuse to write for free. ( http://www.terrelibere.org/ tag / four-to five-). It is inspired by the example of Africans in Castel Volturno laborers went on strike against the foremen with this slogan. The objectives of the campaign are to have a guaranteed minimum payment to cover the news, deadlines for the payment, clear standards and rules for partnerships, to join a union with a small share for freelance and temporary workers, union representation for employees in the newsroom. But the purpose is also to raise public awareness on the fact that many newspapers, websites and information containers are manufactured using the press, with contracts from hungry or without a shred of contract for years.

The campaign stems from an investigation of Italian journalism eBook, titled "Four to Five. Four cents to five bullets. We tell journalists from threats and exploitation. " The author, Raffaella Cosentino, a freelance journalist, refers to cases of young colleagues threatened by the 'Ndrangheta in Calabria working for 4 cents a line. Their stories are collected in the eBook, with more extensive analysis on the working conditions of freelance. Journalists are compared to African Rosarno laborers, paid a € cassette, and items to oranges, you pay the manufacturer to 6 cents per kilo in the supermarket checkouts as they arrive at a price much higher. Similarly, the 'news of the slaves' working for a few euro while raking in millions of publishers, government grants and advertising.

"It's not a stretch to the demagogic approach between the terms of journalistic insecurity and those of immigrants - says Roberto Natale, president Fnsi, the journalists' union, in the afterword of the eBook - Practice recruitment and payment in hand, our publishers are not entitled to feel offended by the parallel (but then if they offend?). How can we not have reason to complain about our editorial hierarchy, those who every day recruiting arm for the collection of stories, if anyone lives as corporals who spend dawn with the van in the town square.

Unsigned, exploited, underpaid, blackmailed and unprotected. The journalist is now a precarious real "Printing Error". That should be corrected. The journalist
atypical is the basis of a mechanism to see the quality of impoverished and journalists increasingly influenced and blackmailed. Thus a new exploit that prevents the fulfillment of our lives and stops the growth of the company.
Ignored by the trade union, although much of the information day will be the result of his tinkering with notebooks and microphones, the journalist is so precarious left to itself. Yet if it were not for casual to bring news and run the machine, the information system would stop abruptly.
The Association of Journalists, the Fnsi and local associations to those who think too much a contract have it already: they call 'free lance' employees forced to sell their wares at bargain prices, forgetting that those who opt for the profession must decide on the basis of personal choice and professional. It should not be forced to do so. And most can not be paid with € 2.5 per piece. Nowhere. For any reason.
Coordination "Printing Errors" no longer wants to suffer or waste time. Who benefits from the work of our colleagues, who denies pension contributions and the mother, who requires the payment of costs to write an article that will barely cover them, we present our demands:

- the application of fair tariff for all employees
- unemployment benefits for all contracts
atypical - the creation of the Basin precarious "and a representative of employees within the Cdr in all newspaper companies, starting with those in a" state of crisis "
- regulation of the stages in the editorial offices: the interns not staff are at no cost and can not be used to replace the work of the editors

We set up a permanent observatory on precarious work as a journalist. It will be our support viral infection. We build a strong subject for all excluded from the negotiating table. The numbers we've got them.
We do this first for us. We do this for all those colleagues just that the battles have caused the lead with no support, with the strength of an ant against the elephant. We are one of them. But we do not want to be alone. And we do not want to leave them alone.

"Printing Errors" when journalism is precarious

of Paul Ribichini for "Right of critical

precarious. In companies, schools, public administration. And especially in newspapers. They call them freelance , but most "free", are forced to follow this path, now mandatory for anyone who wants to be a journalist. An unknown but large and real, ignored by the newspapers themselves, ready to report what happens on farms, but silent in the face of what is happening in newsrooms.

is how, two months ago, the coordination Printing Errors . "We are a group of colleagues raised on bread and chronicle of Rome, in the various editions of the city," said Matthew Valerio, a spokesman for the provisional group. Misprints is made up of writers who "have lived on their skin the corporate crises of its titles. And they paid with their skin involvement of the union only under contract, already largely guaranteed. For this Valerio and others want to "pick up the discontent of many colleagues who have lost all confidence in the assurance that their union should be unified." The accusation is clear: "the Fnsi marked in recent years, a complete detachment from those who are the real needs of a professional class, which now consists in large part by atypical figures.

The problem is primarily economic . Many actually pay for the services of the editorial staff a few tens of euro, or even less than 10 €. And they pay even after several months, using the fact that in almost all newspapers so. But "if there were no casual to bring the news and run the machine, the information system would stop suddenly," reads the poster Printing Errors . And how he's wrong when whole sections or sectors survive exclusively with staff or service editorial.

"Nobody among his colleagues, must no longer remain only in the battles for their rights," says Valerio. "We are aware of this necessity in the light of what is happening today in the newsroom. The crisis was are close, but the prospects are not the best: you predict extensions, more layoffs and a few, very few, or temporary stabilization of new hires. "

is therefore time to understand the precarious journalism are now a cornerstone of the information. However, representation is necessary but not sufficient. Need help from all sides: " put their dignity, human and professional, before anything else . Do not stand in line waiting for the case at hand do have a contract. Working, peg away, feeding on their passion. But to put the pegs, even the pillars of reinforced concrete, faced with any attempt to use "because" we do not work for free, never, " Valerio concludes.

Now the immediate objective of Printing Errors is to "network" : Facebook, Twitter and a blog . In terms of initiatives, the journalists who have joined the project have launched a drive in the newsroom census of all the Roman texts, a job that will allow to fully understand the phenomenon of temporary journalists. In addition there are study groups on the right hand, on unemployment benefit for non-standard, the trustee of the employees in the newsroom, and the regulation stage, which is currently almost never paid.
