U.S. media companies cut 17,809 jobs in 2006, up 88 percent over the year before, and the cost-cutting shows no signs of slowing. Meanwhile, hiring for digital media positions is running at a rapid pace to meet high demand. I’m still amazed at how most (but not all) people who work in TV are oblivious to the connection between their job security and their digital skills. Most don’t even know what “RSS” means. Most would rather read TVSpy over Lost Remote. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
