Report: Massive Layoffs Coming At TBD
UPDATE: More details are now coming to the surface about the deep cuts to TBD’s workforce. Erik Wemple tells the Washington City Paper that he will be remaining at the operation, which will transition to a “niche site on arts and entertainment” and be part of “a big new presence on WJLA.com.” According to anonymous sources quoted by City Paper editor Michael Schaffer, “half the staff,” including all of TBD’s sportswriters and “most of, if not all” of its news staff will be let go. Wemple responded to our request for comment by stating that “it’s clearly a rough day here at TBD.”
