NYT staff buyouts -- who's next?
Media Bistro is chronicling the grim news of staff buyouts at the New York Times.
For months, we've been hearing about buyouts at The New York Times. But who's going and who's staying? We decided to do some actual reporting and create our own list. 1211 buyouts not reported elsewhere and confirmed by sources within the Times, and 15 that have been reported elsewhere. Only 73 to go. We'll keep digging, but if you hear anything, email us.
A list of those on the way out follows. It is worth following the link.
For all our criticism of the Times, for the individuals losing their prize posts, this is a tough time, and they have our sympathy.
