The Beginning of the end of the NYT.

Oy.

OK.

Earlier this year, we began rigorously evaluating our operations to determine how we could further streamline them to improve efficiency and lower costs.

I mean if ever there was a time when a newspaper should increase its fact checking resources, and increase its field agents digging for news, today the Times announced a staff cut of almost 200.

200 more news gatherers is what the Times needs, not 200 fewer.

Now this great newspaper is just like every other news service- they’re all just businesses.
