AI Doom

Thoughts? It's all over the news. A bit too coincidental for one news to be discussed concurrently on every single MSM outlet. Seriously, like someone flipped a switch, a whistleblower tells us what a dozen folks before him did, and it's the opening news across channels with almost identical wording.

McClatchy Cuts Staff Across Multiple Newspapers

McClatchy has implemented significant layoffs, impacting over 90 employees across at least 13 newspapers in eight states. This round of job reductions has led to the elimination of key reporting roles, including data reporters, accountability journalists, and those covering local government beats. The cuts have raised concerns about the company's commitment to supporting comprehensive local news coverage. Journalists from The State newspaper in Columbia, South Carolina, were among those affected, losing reporters with specialized beats. These layoffs are seen as a blow to local journalism and the ability of these outlets to hold institutions accountable.
