    In reply to Layoffs at Newsweek
    They also announced layoffs of 20% of the staff at Sesame Street today. Tragic. #newsweek

    In reply to Layoffs at Newsweek
    You know, as much as I appreciated Newsweek's attempt to get out of the news-weekly format before it was beyond dead and buried (I mean, come on, other than Time's man of the year issue, who in the world has picked up a newsweekly since, um 1996?)

    But their idea to make themselves more abbreviated economist was, well, really boring.

    Anyway, sad for the 13 staffers. Though I'd hope anyone at a newsweekly would have their resumes very well polished and posted at the appropriate job sites. #newsweek

    With less staffers, perhaps Current TV will have less of a chance of getting it's staff embroiled in international nuclear affairs? #media

    With Drew Schutte, Conde has a smart, web-savvy guy running digital--finally. Let's hope that he, like Hearst, has a war chest. Let's also note that Conde Digital is not at 4TS and that, as surely as the luncheon seating plan, is a measure of status. #media

    The Ombudsman wrote a Sesame Street piece about a Sesame Street piece. Unfortunately, nobody who was offended will ever hear of it. #media

    They're moving to LA, ultimately they'll be closing down all the SF production. #currenttv

    Think of all the greenhouse gasses those journalists won't emit by sobbing on the couch in a pile of Cheetos rather than running their dirty ol' laptop 40 hours a week. #currenttv

    In reply to Adobe Joins Pre-Holiday Layoff Wave
    Adobe is just a horrible, horrible, insanely awful company.

    It is the Microsoft of graphic design...stifling innovation and making life harder since the earliest years of personal computing. #layoffs

    @Motoko Kusanagi: Nah. Autodesk is the Microsoft of graphic design. They bought the rights to the two definitive 3D graphics programs that are basically the same and sell them separately. #layoffs

    In reply to AOL Layoffs Tomorrow to Kick Off Depressing Holiday Season?
    At least when I got laid off, the Southern Baptist prick delayed from Good Friday (because the Judge hadn't signed off on the closure of a major metro newspaper actually making money and the firing of nearly 1,900 people) to the Monday after Easter. Did I mention he was and still is a rich prick? #aol

    I'm trying to figure if the lack of Girl Wonders is because of patent sex bias on the part of the media gatekeepers, or if it's because they've got cooties and (except for Mom) are sorta yucky. #wehateyourkids
