Newspapers, news sites, and news networks have always had the craziest answers to questions about their layoffs and budget cuts.

"Three Pulitzer-winning cartoonists let go in one shocking day: McClatchy, citing ‘continuing evolution’ for the cuts, says its newspapers will no longer publish daily opinion cartoons"

Dear papers. I find the fact that I seemingly always need to sign back into your apps, a big ad to become a subscriber, actually insulting.

It really feels like you want to go out of business sometimes.

The fact that at least two papers ( The and the ) simply don't work right with Zotero is prime evidence about why the photographer from Getty told me this weekend at Miami Pride that McClatchy too broke to pay for photos. Newspapers are dying because they have a s*** business model on a run by dinosaurs

🧵 Day 10 of our strike. Here are some wild policies McClatchy has proposed:
1) Parental Leave: the company insists people should have less paid leave depending on how they gave birth. Meaning staff would have to tell the company whether they gave birth vaginally or via c-section. MORE: twitter.com/KaleyAJohnson/stat

I’m very . I am asking this sincerely: How do executives decide how much one of their is worth? How is it decided that a is worth 45k, but 57k is asking too much?

Furthermore, why are successful corporations so quiet as they observe these … Are against and really asking for too much? Where is the support? Where is the to find a solution?

Newsroom strike in Texas. They're fighting for a minimum salary of 57K. McClatchy offered $45K.

While there is a lot of focus on how the debacle at Twitter is adversely affecting journalism, its worth remembering regular media companies are doing a hell of a job on their own. Currently the staff of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram are on strike after failing to reach an agreement with McClatchy which owns the paper.
