What’s Going On at the News Journal?

I heard today from an reliable Anon Tipster that the News Journal may be making its staff re-apply for jobs like some other Gannett newspapers have earlier this month. There may be even more (!)layoffs coming as they re-organize. If you’ve been following the Gannett news, they acquired a broadcasting company last year. Gannett is creating what they call the “Newsroom of the Future” (even though Jim Romanesko notes that they did this in 2006, too). Re-applying for their jobs has been done or in progress at other Gannett newspapers.
Gannett Lays Off Workers and Profits Soar? Great Success!

Newspapers aren’t dying; they’re committing seppuku. And it’s their corporate owners who are sharpening their swords. Just ask anyone at the News Journal.
