Mid-Level Business Staffers Hit Hardest...
Time Inc. eliminated another 250 jobs today in its latest, largest and, perhaps, last round of cutbacks.
The mid-level and junior-level workers shown the door almost all came from the business side of operations at a long list of titles.
"As Time Inc. continues to evolve from a magazine publisher to a multiplatform media company, we're continuing to look at our cost base and how to run our business more efficiently and effectively.
In doing so, unfortunately, we've had to eliminate a number of positions."
"But it's not just about cost cutting," Ms. Zelenko added...

Now we do not have to worry about the former DUmmie journalists.
i know everyone is quick to say the downfall of the "DinoMedia" is here...but the rational explanation is that computers, internet etc (which dont forget the Dino Media uses too) requires LESS workers than the traditional papers did. Unfortunetly, the end of the Dinomedia isnt here yet
lol
Truer words were never spoken. Hard to keep insisting on rotary dial when there are flip phones!
It's not funny, it's a cause for rejoicing.
Liberals are the ENEMY! Their aim is to impose a socialist dictatorship on you.
They showed their true colors during Vietnam, and in case you weren't paying attention then, I'll clue you in on it now.
If the domestic balloon ever goes up, I'm going back into combat.
It's funny in the sense that they were fully responsible for their own axings, since they drove the propagandist mindset that cost them readership and thus advertising dollars and circulation revenue.
I was born in 1970. Don't remember much.

Every time I pick that leftwing rag up I want to write a nasty letter to the editor to correct some moronic article. But then I remember, Hey, no one reads their crap anymore, so why bother!
The April 10 cover story states that the debate is about immigration, not illegal immigration. I just saw it in the supermarket and winced. Nice to hear my prayers were answered so quickly.
DIE! DIE! DIE!
Ditto that!
Love that visual!
Will you be unhappy when OBL loses his job?
Yeah, and I'm sure the money grubbers are farming-out work to foreign countries. But they're not sell-outs, are they?
Apparently, you've been sipping too much of your screenname.
Man post #62 you nailed their asses. I'm so sick of the hand-wringers lately on FR. What a bunch of vaginas.
About the same here. It's been 40 years or so since I've read Time, Newsweek, NY Times, and the rest of the lunatic left rags. They have zero credibility.
Some of you have mentioned "these threads" in your comments on this thread. Look folks, when it comes to illegal immigrants taking U.S. Citizens jobs, when it comes to transferring jobs offshore, when it comes to moving manufacturing jobs overseas, there's a morbid silence on this forum from a lot of folks.
I mention that I don't mind at all that a leftist rag's employees are being laid off, and all of a sudden some of you gain sensitivity to job layoffs.
If these folks work for Time, they are working for a publishing media conglomerate that has spent at least the last decade trying to destroy much of what you believe in. Pardon me for not being very sympathetic as their empire crumbles.
CBS knows that about 50 percent of the evening news audience are women.
If NBC has 9.5 million, ABC has 8.7 Million and CBS has 8.1 million that totals 26.3 Million viewers. If nearly 50 percent are women then there are 12.5 to 13 million woman in the evening news audience. They think Katie can lure most of the women away from NBC and ABC. They also think she can hold a fair number of men.. that would put Katie in a huge lead over NBC and ABC.
That will not work. A female co-host on the morning show can trash men with her fake smile and back stabbing personality.. but a news anchor .... never.
Women see through Katie in a heart beat.. Only CBS executives are too naive to understand how women perceive Katie Kat.
Men don't care much for Katie either. Most men undestand women like Katie and at best wish her on their worst enemies.
