Cuts coming to the Daily News
The Los Angeles Newspaper Group, which includes the flagship paper LA Daily News, is talking more and more seriously about a universal copy desk stationed out of the San Gabriel Valley Tribune's West Covina office.
We're already a few weeks into a combined copy desk with some of our inland papers.
Talks of this of universal desk has, of course, also brought talks of layoffs. And it looks like those rumors might be true...
The scary thing about the LANG cuts is that I don't detect even a whiff of a busines plan, other than cut, cut, cut. Has Dean Singleton articulated any believable strategy?
