With the finalization of their newsroom buyout program today, the Dallas Morning News announced that 111 newsrooms employees were participating in its voluntary severance program. A number that equals almost 20 percent of their newsroom employees. There are reports that all the staffers in some departments took the buyout.
So what does this mean for regular readers of the DMN? It’s the diminishing of their top 10 media market paper from a national position to a local position. No more telling national and international stories from a Dallas perspective. Instead you can read the wire stories. More errors in the everyday story. Less focus on the details. A smaller newshole.
