Nolte: Disgraced Media Already Hit with Massive Layoffs in 2018

When President Trump’s presidency is over, one of the biggest pieces of fake news we will look back on is when we were told by the media that Trump was good for the media business. The truth is that business for the media is horrible.

The Denver Post announced that between April 9 and July 1, 30 jobs will be cut from its newsroom--a massive 30 percent cut of its current staff of 100 journalists. Just 10 years ago the Denver Post employed 600 journalists--close to a 90 percent reduction in only a decade.

Layoffs hit the Chicago Tribune. Fourteen newsroom staffers were let go in a second round of layoffs in less than six months as the newspaper prepares to leave Tribune Tower for smaller space at Prudential Plaza.

The San Jose Mercury News was hit with another round of terminations, as many as 27 staffers were either laid off or bought out.

The East Bay Times wiped out a quarter of its editorial staff through layoffs and buy outs — a total of 28 staffers.

We also learned in January that a total of five publications owned by Southern California News Group will face “significant layoffs.”

To protect Barack Obama’s anemic economic “recovery,” our media tried to convince us that unemployment in the Obama era, was really “funemployment.” When the working class, those our elitist media despise, lose their jobs to illegal immigrants, unfair trade deals, and oppressive and unnecessary environmental regulations, the media have dismissively suggested that they all catch up with the times and learn computer code.

So let me be the first to wish all of these “journalists” a Happy Funemployment and wish them luck all the luck in the world with their new careers as computer coders.

Unfortunately those who have been dispatched will enter the private workforce and cause all manner of problems and discord. There’s no way to retrain them.
