It's a great time to be starting a career in the newspaper business. Not.
On the (somewhat) bright side, not all of the jobs cut over the last year were newsroom jobs. Not all of the newsroom jobs were reporters. Also, there's the rumor that a lot of these layoffs are temporary, a way to get rid of higher-paid, established older reporters. Which suggests that as long as I don't mind making very little money for the as long as newspapers continue to exist I should, hopefully, be able to find a job. I do mind, though.
