Man, what a shame
From that Climate Colored Goggles link in the first tweet
The Washington Post produced some of America’s finest climate journalism over the last decade, aggressively covering President Trump’s regulatory rollbacks and winning a Pulitzer Prize for a series about Earth’s fastest-warming places. Alongside the New York Times and the Associated Press, I don’t think any U.S. news outlet published a greater volume of urgent, high-quality climate and clean energy coverage.
Everything changed on Wednesday morning.
The Post sent layoff notices to at least 14 climate journalists, newsroom sources told me, part of a massive round of cost-cutting that will see more than 300 journalists lose their jobs — about 30% of all employees at the Jeff Bezos-owned company.
The climate team layoffs include eight writer/reporters, an editor and several video, data and graphics journalists, I’m told. I’m not publishing their names, since many of them haven’t discussed their situations publicly. But to see the invaluable work they and their colleagues have been doing, check out the Post’s climate page here.
But, what are they really producing? How many articles? Anything of consequence? I rarely use the WP for my climate posts, and I rarely see any other Skeptics using their articles. Sounds like they are cutting a lot of bloat and dead weight. The WP is a business meant to make money, but are losing a ton because the product is bad.
Everytime a journolist is fired an angel gets his wings.
That is actually funny. Kudos.

At 9 they let Trump try to spin it. They cut him off and said ” we can not defend the indefensible. This is not law enforcement”

Mea culpa mea culpa mea maxima culpa.
But from you puppy killa ? I really expected a worse chastisement
I’m not one to be happy about people other than those who have been actually breaking the law losing their jobs, but 19 people reporting just on
global warmingclimate change? Yeah, that’s just ridiculous over-staffing.These people aren’t doing any actual research on the subject, but simply producing articles on other people’s research; it shouldn’t take 19 staffers to do that.
When Sam Fortier, one of the laid off sports reporters lamented about being laid off, Strieff, one of the main writers on RedState did the research and replied:
Seventeen sports articles, some of the easiest things to report and write, in 92 days? You can’t tell me that he wasn’t some reportorial deadwood at the Post!/i>
