Gannett to cut 1,400 jobs

The Associated Press reported today that Gannett Co. plans to cut 1,400 jobs this month. That is about 3 percent of its total work force.
Bob Dickey, head of the company's newspaper division, informed staff of the layoffs in a letter Wednesday.
The majority of layoffs will come by July 9, he said.
The move follows a 10 percent cut at Gannett last year, which left the company with about 41,500 employees.
