The fact that my audio colleagues were cut LITERALLY A DAY after Foretold wrapped is beyond beyond. There is clearly a gross misunderstanding of the value our audio team brings to
@latimes
I'm one of the 70+ people who received a layoff notice. It happened a day after wrapping Foretold, a project I've been helping to write, report, edit + mix for over a year. Every single audio producer + all but one of our engineers was affected by the proposed cuts. I am livid.

We learned yesterday that
@latimes
management plans to cut 70+ positions. A day after Foretold wrapped. Just weeks after our colleagues won Pulitzers. And after MONTHS of bargaining that hasn’t gone anywhere.
The vacuum of leadership is really astounding.
L.A. Times management’s decision to blindside the Guild with proposed layoffs as it neglects bargaining sends a clear message: You don’t care about the contract — or us.
