No accountability, even under the skeleton-crew conditions of recent years. Work hard when the pressure's on, but when it's off, it's slack time. And that would account for stale news sitting on the sites.

Old news lingers on the mobile and desktop sites like smell leftovers, I don't see this on other media sites.

Is it possible that they transferred more people from GCI to GPS during the year? That would result in GPS only showing a few hundred less employees.
