The Washington Post’s CEO has announced he is quitting the job, days after the newspaper slashed a third of its staff.
CEO and publisher Will Lewis shared the decision in a message to employees on Saturday, which was later posted on X by the paper’s White House bureau chief.

Just saying. It's never a good sign.

Media companies started 2026 with deep staff cuts. Over 17,000 jobs vanished in 2025, an 18% increase. Mergers stalled, and AI continued to reshape newsrooms. Digital ad revenue faltered, intensifying pressure on publishers. Audiences now hold significant sway over the industry's future.
Interesting to see how the Amazon layoffs news spread across 52 different sources over the past few days. You can track the timeline of how this story evolved at https://yandori.io/news-flow/ - shows which outlets broke it first and how it propagated through media.
I’ve been an employee of Optum for quite some time. I was recently contacted by a journalist who would like to ask me some questions about how the organization works and my personal experiences. Think I should talk to him?
Where is the media on this?

What is up with the news? About 10K jobs have been eliminated this month (January) and not a single news article, posting, etc. anywhere... where are the biz reporters?
How can anyone trust the news and media when a story like this doesn't even make the LinkedIn news feed?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Has anyone had luck with attorneys to reclaim severance or bonus?

Ratings across 158 TV networks are down this year by an average of 18% to 30% under Nielsen’s new Big Data + Panel measurement, the Video Advertising Bureau (VAB) told The Current.
The declines in the highly prized 25 to 54 demographic — now at levels not seen in 23 years when compared with panel-only measurement — break down three ways: an 18% drop overall, a 23% decline for cable networks and 30% plunge when news and sports programming are excluded.
VAB President Sean Cunningham said the organization began uncovering these issues in late October after digging into the data. He added that Big Data + Panel shows unusually high variance, overreporting or underreporting ratings by roughly 20%. Some networks, he said, are experiencing statistical aberrations across as much as 60% of all viewing hours.
This misreporting — especially for the valuable 25 to 54 demo — has major implications for both buy and sell sides. Incomplete, unstable measurement suppresses CPMs for publishers, draining ad revenue for the already shrinking traditional TV ecosystem. On the buy side, agencies struggle to plan, forecast or trust audience guarantees.
“There is an enormous structural defect sitting in the trading currency where the 25 to 54 demographic has been systemically crushed by all of the biases inside of the way Nielsen’s calculating Big Data + Panel,” Cunningham told The Current.
When asked to comment, Nielsen responded: “This report is seriously flawed and manipulated. From what we have seen, the VAB incorrectly pulled our data and the bureau does not know how to do a proper ratings analysis. The VAB is wasting the time and money of its members."
A source close to one of the TV networks contacted by The Current added: "We went into Nielsen Big Data + Panel knowing that there could be challenges, which is why we’ve evaluated it closely from the start. As we’ve continued working with the data, and after reviewing the VAB report, we’re seeing additional discrepancies that deserve a closer look."
Cunningham said the VAB stepped in only after publishers exhausted all options trying to work with Nielsen, efforts that led to frustration over what he described as “layer upon layer of voodoo math” embedded in Nielsen’s methodology.
He believes Nielsen is weighing its 43,000-person panel too heavily, allowing it to dominate signals compared to its 45 million big data sources. He argues this leads to an oversaturation of viewers aged 55 and over in the reported ratings.

She was challenged several weeks ago on this board to go on CNBC to be interviewed and by golly, she did ! Albeit a soft ball interview with Sharon Epperson for DEI reasons.
Let's be honest here, if she interviewed with Jim Cramer, David Faber, or Sara Eisen, she'd be eaten alive trying to defend her missteps. It is ironic that even Roger Ferguson has appeared on CNBC as a contributor more times in the last year, then Duckett has appeared on CNBC in 5 yrs.
There are rumors and whispers she is losing internal support. All of a sudden, we see a flurry of activity from her lately in an attempt to save face and her job. So many speeches and public appearances that she has no real time to run TIAA like she is supposed to and this begs the question; who is really running TIAA ? She is paid millions and the company is chaos and no one is at the helm. She collects hundreds of thousands of dollars as a Nike Board Member & a pair of Air Jordans.
Instead, they have Jay Leno headline the TIAA FutureWise conference with the CEO laughing herself all the way to the Bank while many long term TIAA employees are being laid off. Shoot, maybe is she ran AI to run the company, it would be in much better financial shape today. It's funny how she criticized AI, but sold out to Accenture as they promised us the world with AI driven solutions which have not materialized.
TIAA FutureWise Conference (November 2025) In a discussion with CNBC, she advised that retirement investors should focus on building diversified portfolios and guaranteed income streams rather than worrying about an AI
Surprised to see Gina’s internal email in the press already! 😀.

Everybody, yall keep posting the same article from different websites and freaking out. It is literally just saying the same thing and taking stuff from this website. It’s actually quite hysterical.
A heart warming article on WSJ about the longest serving employee of QC..
De... ..nch at Qualcomm
Principal engineer/manager
Age: 61
Date hired: 1987
Early days: Qualcomm’s longest-serving employee moved to San Diego after college, looking for warm weather. He saw a classified ad in the San Diego Union-Tribune in 1987 and applied for a role as a technician. He was 22. “I had no idea what the company was,” he said. Qualcomm would go on to power the technology used inside millions of cellphones and other devices, with Punch working on many of the company’s key projects.
Chris McCarthy being “let go” as co-CEO back in August was probably the first sensible decision Paramount’s made in years. The man’s entire career has been one long masterclass in failing upward. Now he’s probably slinking over to 101 Studios or NBCU to “collaborate” with Taylor Sheridan, who’s already planning his big exit from Paramount in 2028. It’s the perfect Hollywood farce. One guy can’t keep a job without wrecking it, the other’s counting down the days till he can cash out and ride off on a horse named Ego. You decide which is which. Chris somehow walks away with a multi-million dollar payout for achieving absolutely nothing, proving once again that in this town, being useless isn’t a flaw,it’s a business model. That's right, Amy, Liza, Laurel, Nina, and co.
BI - Business Insider has an entire story about this NDA thing and much of it is accurate however, I can't help but wonder if it was EMPLOYEES who leaked all this or if Dell did it to try and gain interest or something...
Kind of how Apple leaks product info/details about new products.
Dell isn't "selling" a new product here but what they are doing is moving towards a new platform and it's possible by Dell leaking this, it'd make customers/future customers think "hey, I like what they are doing! Let's think about Dell instead of HP!"
