Bad News: Staff Shifts At Three NYC Papers

Oy, not a good day to be working at three venerable New York City newspapers. First, the two top editors at alt-weekly Village Voice have resigned rather than "lay off or drastically reduce the role of five employees on the 20-person staff," writes David Carr in The New York Times.

At the New York Post, management is offering voluntary buyouts to qualified newsroom employees to achieve a 10% staff reduction, though the paper says it could institute layoffs if not enough employees take the deal, according to Capital New York.

And the New York Daily News has already cut about 15 staffers from its payroll, including veterans Albor Ruiz and Joanna Molloy.
