circulation layoffs from papers and corporate support staff
So far all the layoffs appear to be on the Gannett side of the business. 3 media groups in Texas were closed yesterday. Most of the layoffs appear to be coming from sales and post sales support roles.
Does anyone know if the employees let go were old Gatehouse employees or Gannett?

They laid off 20% of their sales staff at the Indy office. Several Sales managers were laid off. Gannett is a nightmare I don’t know why people work there honestly.

Right now only location that can be confirmed is Chesapeake, VA as this primarily affects the Technology Division. No other specifics were given beyond that. Most positions being eliminated will be gone before Christmas.
Still no word on how newsrooms will be affected yet.
