    Sports take triple cut at Cox Media combined desk

    Heart goes out to those who got "pulled aside" tonight. They can name themselves if they wish. I won't. Three of the six cuts on the first floor in West Palm Beach came from the sports department. The other three layoffs/early retirements are on news side. The sports department did not expect...

    How are you playing Tony Stewart on your cover?

    Playing it on cover? I know I am late to the party here, but Tony Stewart went 0-for-4 reaching the cover of the four dailies I edit.

    Charlotte/Raleigh consolidated desk

    Too funny. It's been since 2007 since I last logged onto this site, and I remember your name posting jobs (don't remember where) and 'bumping' postings. Thanks for the memory.

    More Gannett cuts

    Hey all, Just checked. Been since 2007 since I last logged in. Been fortunate since then in my SoFla shop. Not much chatter about Lansing State Journal. I heard the sports editor lost his job, and that hits me hard. He was there at the start of my career 25 years ago. So I'm asking ...

    Ann Arbor

    I'm in Hour 5 digesting the news, chatting with former collegues, taking cell calls, answering email. Nothing more to add except I plan on sitting at the bar stool at 6 p.m., and drinking until I fall over. Very sad indeed.

    Herald to cut about 175 positions

    All terrible news about the three sportswriters posted on The Daily Pulp. But for those of you who know Dave Fitzpatrick (Fitzy), his wife, Brendy Moody (at least, I'm pretty sure that this Brenda is his wife) is on the list, too.

    McClatchy to eliminate 1,600 jobs

    Miami Herald Sunday SE leaving. Will he be replaced?

    Are longer hours, fewer days off and the newspaper industry in general taking more of a toll? Just heard that the Herald's Sunday sports editor is leaving after less than a year on the job. Sources say he's not leaving for another job, but has just 'had enough.' Sources add that the Herald...

    Beginning of end for Miami Herald

    I sense a trend beginning. On the heels of Booth Newspapers consolidating the editing and design of the chain's eight Michigan newspapers to a central source out of the Grand Rapids Press, Miami Herald employees found out yesterday that McClatchy is planning on a similar route. McClatchy's...

    Sports Web Producer Wanted -- The Palm Beach Post

    Yep, there's a new prep hire. She started last week. And as far as the Web job ... the desk does the bulk if not all of the editing and headline writing. The Web producer just needs to know how to get the information on the site and make it look good. Think of this as a 'design' job and not...

    Detroit newspapers losing "daily" tag?

    Just chiming in .... My subscription to the Miami Herald pays for itself. I use at least $5 in coupons each week at Publix. Sometimes more. What I read in the paper, spread out on the kitchen table with my breakfast, is a bonus.
