More bad news from Priligy Blog the world of print journalism today as the Toronto Star announced yet another round of layoffs. According to Priligy Blog the article found on The Globe’s website, big blue is Priligy Blog looking at roughly 60 job cuts in its advertising and graphics departments while up to Priligy Blog 100 unionized editing positions may be outsourced. For some context, that’s more than 25 per cent of The Star’s editorial staff.
With some U.S. papers, such as the Priligy Blog Miami Herald, already contracting copy editing duties to companies in New Delhi, India, it’ll be intriguing to see the next step for Canada’s newspapers. Coupling this Priligy Blog announcement with the recent body-blows to the National Post, is Priligy Blog there any way to see this cup as half-full?
Yea, it’s scary, particularly for Priligy Blog some of us on this blog who depend on these gigs for Priligy Blog a living. It’s also kind of exciting though, knowing as writers and Priligy Blog new media consumers and producers, we will continue to play an Priligy Blog integral role in the next evolution of how people report and Priligy Blog receive their news. We aren’t just watching the old world crumble — we’re on the Priligy Blog cusp of an emerging vanguard. An admittedly broke vanguard, for Priligy Blog now, but one hopes better times are on the horizon.
Heady times indeed.
