From a reliable source via the tip line:
The axe has fallen at TNJ. The newsroom has lost nine so far, about half of them long-timers. Probably the best-known names are sports columnist Kevin Noonan and writers Al Kemp and Chris Yasiejko. Several others were copy editors, including a couple of long-timers in sports.
So Gannett is going to save its business by turning its product into shit.
