Mid-Level Business Staffers Hit Hardest...
Time Inc. eliminated another 250 jobs today in its latest, largest and, perhaps, last round of cutbacks.
The mid-level and junior-level workers shown the door almost all came from the business side of operations at a long list of titles.
"As Time Inc. continues to evolve from a magazine publisher to a multiplatform media company, we're continuing to look at our cost base and how to run our business more efficiently and effectively.
In doing so, unfortunately, we've had to eliminate a number of positions."
"But it's not just about cost cutting," Ms. Zelenko added...

Antique media bump.
Imagine if they ever posted their true circulation numbers?
Thats a lot of liberals out on the street. Let's see how they do in the free market.
Good luck hippies.
Under Chairman-CEO Ann S. Moore, Time Inc. has slashed staff since December, when the publisher eliminated about 105 jobs, including those belonging to some of the company's highest-ranking and longest-serving executives.
In February, it cut another 100 or so positions, mostly from editorial.
Pass the Kleenex so I can wipe my tears... of laughter.
Henry Luce is looking down from Paradise and shaking his head...
I stopped reading that rag over 20 years ago.
Time is a hippie magazine?
What is so funny about people losing their jobs? Liberal or not.
Want to kick em while they are down?
Go to you local bookstore, pick up all the subscriber card trash and drop them in the mail for processing. Its Time's litter after all.
TIME
Pink Floyd
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you’re older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It’s good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.
No their newsroom is hippie heaven. Thanks for letting me clarify.
You have to be joking right? Here's an organization that on a daily basis works to tear down America and lies to its readers. They are now seeing the market respond to their product. Come again? Im supposed to feel sorry for them...Ah..no.
If you think real hard, I think you'll find a golden nugget in there somewhere. These folks have enjoyed publishing anti-US (or even anti-Conservative) thought for long enough. "TIME" to let them get a real job like the rest of us.
LOL
LOL
More good news...
"TIME" to let them get a real job like the rest of us.
Time. Flowing like a river.
To the sea. To the sea.
Till it's gone forever.
Gone forever.
Gone forevermore.
Floyd Rules!
As you might know, Time Warner Book Group changed names (and owners) at Midnight(4/1/06) and we are now officially known as Hachette Book Group, USA.
NOT an April fools joke.
