  8. Some or all are being asked to stay on until Dec. 1. Presumably to transition the team that will be staying into whatever shape they have in mind.

  9. One of the editors in sports has twins on the way. Just sick about it.

  10. A reminder that I'm not posting names in the comments or elsewhere without the permission of the person laid off. Even praise by name might be painful if the person isn't ready to have the news made public.

  12. Oops, my bad. How about this: a supremely talented and unnamed grizzled veteran photographer voluntarily took retirement, saving at least one job in photo.

  13. @ 2:41, if that's who I think it is, we (the photo department) just lost an amazing individual, journalist and wealth of valuable institutional knowledge. Saddened by all the loses today, but particularly this one.

  21. If someone knows who the sports editor expecting twins is, please contact me for help with twins equipment. We still have some of our things from our twins.
    I don't want to post my contact info on a public website, so hopefully someone out there knows me. I'm on the third floor in projects.
