Union technicians press Pac-12 Networks for better wages and benefits

The Daily Californian: The Pac-12 Networks, which televise hundreds of athletic events for Pac-12 schools each year, have run into opposition from unions of technicians who claim that the wages and benefits the networks offer fall below industry-standard rates. Members of the Bay Area branch of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees began a bannering campaign at the networks’ headquarters in San Francisco earlier this month to raise awareness about what they consider to be substandard wages and benefits that the networks offer their broadcast technicians.
