People keep hinting there's been a top-level executive reshuffling at Corporate amid the big newspaper layoff now underway. But I haven't heard much that's firm -- or very far-reaching. Maybe a reorganization is still in the works, beyond those reports that company spokeswoman Tara Connell may be working a new editorial project.
Otherwise, the only tip I've gotten says three newspaper division officers -- including one who's well-known -- all received buyouts. I'm withholding the names given to me, pending further confirmation. (But note this comment on Monday, at 11:06 a.m. ET.) These buyouts would be special situations, since Chief Financial Officer Gracia Martore's buyout memo last month said officers weren't eligible.
Who's in, and who's out at Corporate? Please post your replies in the comments section, below. To e-mail confidentially, write gannettblog[at]gmail[dot-com]; see Tipsters Anonymous Policy in the green sidebar, upper right.

ReplyDeletewe know them already
ReplyDeleteThis is no time to be sarcastic. You must be too afraid to list here what GCI floors or departments were affected.
ReplyDeletei'll only tell you if you say please.....
ReplyDeleteHey 11:28 PLEASE!
ReplyDeleteHow very, very eerie and sad that not one single soul from Corporate had the courage to anonymously respond to Jim's request on this matter thus far.
ReplyDelete10:06, it's not 'eerie' - I work at corp. and I'm as clueless as you are. Don't hate your corporate brothers! Or at least don't hate all of us. We're in this together.
ReplyDelete10:06, There's absolutely no hate here, just great concern what's happening there. Certainly nothing to laugh about how GCI is crashing. Lots of folks all over the country who used to be employed there want to know too.
