Kotz / Media Tennessean Employees Will Get an Unpaid Week Off
Posted by Pete Kotz on Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 2:21 PM
More bad news from Gannett, the country's largest newspaper company and owner of The Tennessean: Its 40,000 U.S. workers will have to take an unpaid week off this quarter.
While it may come as good news to those who can afford it, not so for the long-term picture. Gannett has already been hit with thousands of layoffs, and the bad news keeps coming every week. Though unpaid vacations are better than further layoffs, this doesn't speak well for future job security at The Tennessean--or for readers who rely on news from an ever thinning staff.
