Gannett Will Cut More Than 1,000 Jobs

By RUSSELL ADAMS

Gannett Co., the largest U.S. newspaper publisher by daily circulation, will cut more than 1,000 jobs in response to continuing revenue declines, according to a person familiar with the company’s thinking.

The cuts will come from the U.S. Community Publishing division, which consists of Gannett’s more than 80 local dailies, the person said. They won’t affect the flagship publication, USA Today. It wasn’t clear exactly how many jobs will be shed, although the person said it will be fewer than 2,000.
