Host Frank Stasio speaks with North Carolina news media leaders about the news landscape and impact of newsroom layoffs around the state.
This winter, waves of journalists across the country lost their jobs as major media organizations made significant cut backs. Among them, media giant Gannett cut an estimated 400 people, and The McClatchy Company offered voluntary buyouts to about 450 people. The mass layoffs follow years of staff cuts at newspapers and media outlets across the country.
