Forbes Layoffs Cut Deep

Comments

As our sister blog FishbowlNY reported yesterday, the massive layoffs expected at Forbes magazine came today:

Although we’re hearing that close to 100 people have lost their jobs company wide, David Carr reported that between 40 and 60 editorial staff members would get the axe. Those sort of cuts are huge in a staff of only 200. Who is left?

Our other sister blog, MediaJobsDaily, has the names of several editorial staffers who were pink-slipped.
