The local TV cuts continue…

Cory Bergman July 2nd, 2008

WFLA is eliminating 10 positions, KNTV laid off 8 people and WOIO/WUAB has let four people go, reports Broadcasting & Cable. As we linked yesterday, KTLA has laid off as many as 7 employees. While that’s all bad news, it pales in comparison to newspaper cuts: some papers are reducing their staff by as much as 25 percent this year.

But some good news: Obama, McCain expected to spend big on TV

    “pales in comparison to newspaper cuts.”

    cory, that’s like saying it’s good that Katrina wasn’t worse.

    trying to put a good face on what is happening to one aspect of traditional media because it’s worse in another is swell just silly.
