AP Could Lose 10% of Staff in '09
Associated Press President and CEO Tom Curley told a group of employees today that the AP could lose up to 10 percent of its staff by the end of 2009, but likely through attrition not layoffs.
AP spokesman Paul Colford confirmed that Curley had made such comments during an employee town hall meeting today, adding that “he was met with applause at the end of the meeting.”
Colford noted that the employee reduction would likely occur through attrition because the news cooperative has been under a hiring freeze for several weeks.
