From a TVNewser tipster: CBS News’ layoffs in the interactive arena extend beyond Dotcom. The net’s new Mobile News division lost 1/3 of its news team when it axed its LA Mobile News bureau. Not a surprise in the least, and just goes to show that “new media” face the same year-end cost cutting that the “old guard” face. Add all of this to the NBC layoffs and it’s a great reminder to everyone in this business to make one of their New Year’s resolutions a resolution to always keep an updated resume and demo reel.
