Urgent: Broadcasting announces broad wage cuts

That is according to a poster on the Real Time Comment string, above. I'm working off my iPhone, with no Wi-Fi access. Comment, below, while I find a place to work. This suggests at least partial confirmation of the other rumors we've been hearing.

  1. The original was from KUSA in Denver. I can confirm a different Gannett station got the same letter and FAQ.

  2. Note in particular this part from the FAQ:

    "Q. Are all Gannett divisions implementing salary reductions?
    A. No. Each division is approaching the question of expense reductions in a way that aligns with their financial and strategic realities. Divisions are implementing and communicating their plans separately."

    So even if you aren't in Broadcast, clench those buttcheeks because here it comes. . .

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."
