So that's what happened in Westchester

I asked last week what happened in Westchester. We were hearing about layoffs at Gannett Co.'s Westchester County franchise, The Journal News.

The New York Times answered this week:

You’re Gone. But Hey, You Can Reapply.

OR from Columbia Journalism Review:

Gannett spins the hamster wheel

Bottom line in both reports: The entire business reporting and editing staff was laid off in a reorganization after all 288 news and advertising employees were asked to reapply for their jobs.
