Around mid-morning, staffers are expected to start hearing how deep the cuts will be as Time Inc. CEO Joe Ripp unveils what is likely the last big downsizing before Time Warner spins off the publishing group as a separate company later this year.

Magazines are the first to go in a down economy followed by restaurants and clothing stores.
They still have 500 employees?
obama’s fault!
LOL!
I hate for anyone to lose his job, as it affects so many innocents like children, etc. Still, in some instances, the Schadenfreude bubbles up......
LOVE THAT!
Running Obama in the cover of about every 5th issue didn’t send sales through the roof?
GREAT START!!!
Hope OTHER mainstream media organs follow suit.
Extinction of the Dodo Birds!!!
Feel good story of the day!
“Time Is On My Side”
Rolling Stones
Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
Now you always say
That you want to be free
But you’ll come running back (said you would baby)
You’ll come running back (I said so many times before)
You’ll come running back to me
Oh, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
You’re searching for good times
But just wait and see
You’ll come running back (I won’t have to worry no more)
You’ll come running back (spend the rest of my life with you, baby)
You’ll come running back to me
Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town
And baby, do everything your heart desires
Remember, I’ll always be around
And I know, I know
Like I told you so many times before
You’re gonna come back, baby
Cause I know
You’re gonna come back knocking
Yeah, knocking right on my door
Yes, yes!
Well, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
Cause I got the real love
The kind that you need
You’ll come running back (said you would, baby)
You’ll come running back (I don’t always said you would)
You’ll come running back (I won’t have to worry no more)
Yes time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Oh, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
I said, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Oh, time, time, time is on my side
Yeah, time, time, time is on my side
If you work for a company that was sold for $1, you kind of have to expect this, don’t you?
Content?
I use a very popular Mexican restaurant/bar on the West side of town in the large metro area I live in as a barometer. It is usually packed - not a parking space visible - in fair to good economic times. Lately, it's been about half full at peak restaurant/bar hours (7:00-10:00). I can imagine the management is biting their nails down to nubs.
HAHA!! That was my first thought too!!
Attempting to feel pity....
No pity available. Nor deserved. They wanted to work for a communist mouthpiece for the almighty dollar. Now they have no mouthpiece or dollars. Perhaps their families can direct them into a more pro American job.
HA! friggin HA!...
