Recapping The Times Buyouts

Yesterday was a somber day at The New York Times, as the paper bid farewell to all of the newsroom staffers who agreed to to take buyouts. We’ve heard from Times-ers that the rumor among staff is that 75 people have agreed to the buyouts including metro reporter Jennifer 8. Lee, a surprise that came out late yesterday. (There’s a list of around 40 here and Keith Kelly reported last week that only 50 unionized workers were taking the buyouts.)
