I just want to wish all the KC Star employee's good luck tomorrow. The rumor is that there will be buyouts/layoffs.
Let us know how it turns out.

Worse than that I fear. Pensions go away is what I heard.

Hope not 7:22 please let us know. Do you know if it is just buyouts and what are they offering? Is it just affecting the newsroom?

Just rumors but they are saying, buyouts or else, contributions for pension and health care going south. The Newsroom is never the only one affected. They are the least affected but the only ones you ever hear about. The only good rumor though is one aditorialist is going to be history.

Sadly, it isn't Jason Fatback or Mike Hindlick.

We'll see when they start escorting them out like criminals.

The Modesto Bee says goodbye to the 12 employees who were given notice back in September. There last day is Sunday the 16th of November. We wish you all well and God bless you and your family.

Only one editorialist? I had my hopes up that the entire editorial board would be gone--why do they need them now that they helped get Obama elected.

Plus they pushed light rail and the mayor on KC and see where that has gotten us?

That group as whole and as individials are an embarassment to journalism.
