Reporters, columnists, photographers and artists at the Washington Post pulled their bylines off their work appearing in today’s and Friday’s editions to protest one year of working without a labor contract.

The byline strike, believed the first such action ever at the newspaper, comes a month after the company’s “last and best” offer--an economic package with average increases between 4% and 5% annually--on a new three-year labor pact that has been stymied by a dispute over salaries, overtime policies and health insurance.
