NBC News boss Deborah Turness is spending the last few days of the year eyeing cuts — moves that could include axing some senior on-air talent, The Post has learned.
Turness, brought on in August to shake up the moribund news division — where “Meet the Press” and “Today” had stumbled — is in the midst of a host of end-of -year buyouts and cost reductions, sources said.
The current moves are not the first time Turness has irked journalists under her command.

That's a horrible idea. FR is definitely one sided, my favorite side I may add, but I would never consider FR a news source. I think of it as a News Pointer to articles of interest. You'll lock yourself into an ideological bubble where you think all cops shoot dogs, all SW states strip and cavity search everybody they pull over, black people want to kill you, everybody that has a hispanic sounding name is an illegal alien and that all are politicians are corrupt .. er wait, forget that last one. That ones true.
I hear Katie Couric is looking for work...

Don’t think they’re reforming, they’re just getting ready for the next election cycle. Gotta remain relevant and since most of their news presenters have perjured and debased themselves for this administration, they need fresh untainted blood to be considered almost relevant again.
Uh, actually, none of what you say about me is true.
If you want to listen to and watch the talking heads, be my guest.
I’m neither stupid nor lazy. I prefer not to watch tv at all except for a few programs I find interesting.
To each his own, the old man said when he kissed the cow....and all that.
By only reporting what the government tells you.
Bingo, Farmer Dean.
Do I hope?
Do I?
“DC staff irked as NBC News eyes cuts”
Good.
So, they’ve finally realized that the way to success is to quit lying, and they’re going to be presenting the news honestly from now on, right?
Right?
I doubt it, and judging by the fact that you decided to immediately make something up about me (I don’t watch talking heads on TV), I’m probably closer to the mark than you let on.
FR is a great pointer to current or pending conservative topics. It’s not a news source. It’s a news repeater of topics that are of particular interest to certain segments of the conservative population.
No need to reply, because I’m skeptical from somebody that claims FR as their one and only news source. Particularly when they’re prone to making something up right away to defend themselves.
“or blowing up the entire franchise and trying something completely different, sources familiar with the situation said.”
I like that option. How about just reporting the news. All of it with no political strings attached.
Maybe they could try giving both sides of a story? Oh yeah, never mind.

Actually, considering the qualifications and intelligence of most of the so-called, self-proclaimed professionals in the newser business ... it's not hard!
Because they don’t do news, they do liberal indoctrination.
Agreed. Here is the "FRs News Ping List" that works just great:
“Turness has been trying to figure out the future for David Gregory’s “Meet the Press,” with options including bringing in MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” team of Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for a Sunday show, or blowing up the entire franchise and trying something completely different, sources familiar with the situation said.”
Oh boy. Rubbing hands together, I’ll light that fuse then run like hell.
Stage 4 cancer I hope
