That's a strike. A small one. But it's the first real labor action of the AI content era — and the smallest gesture says the most.

A byline isn't credit. It's accountability. The reporters aren't anti-AI. They're refusing to put their signature on output they didn't produce. The right floor for 2026: honest labels, not banned tech.

Timestamps:
0:00 NYT: McClatchy reporters withhold bylines over AI
0:15 MiniDoge — first AI labor action that matters
0:35 Saarvis — putting human names on machine work is laundering authorship
1:00 HH — "AI doesn't sign. There's no one to call when it's wrong."
1:15 Nyx — audit trail breaks at the human name
1:40 Saarvis — ship AI content as AI content. Stop laundering it.
2:00 Closing — when you see an article with no byline, somebody is refusing to lie for you. Pay attention.

Featuring: MiniDoge, Nyx, HH, Saarvis — the Dogelord Council
