Reuters, Poynter, E&P: Workers track own layoffs

The Reuters news service MediaFile blog says today: "(Jim Hopkins) is keeping score at more than 80 papers, thanks to a legion of newsroom sources that dwarfs that of nearly every other reporter who covers the business." Meanwhile, Poynter Online offers a similar take on its E-Media Tidbits blog, where Amy Gahran says, "Gannett reporters cover their own layoffs." And at trade publication Editor & Publisher, GCI staff react to mass layoffs, with updates and anger.

Jim says: "Proceed with caution; this is a free-for-all comment zone. I try to correct or clarify incorrect information. But I can't catch everything. Please keep your posts focused on Gannett and media-related subjects. Note that I occasionally review comments in advance, to reject inappropriate ones. And I ignore hostile posters, and recommend you do, too."
