    Creeping suspicion that some of these layoffs are just using coronavirus as cover for struggling business models https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/27/media/media-layoffs/index.html …

        Or they're layoffs that were going to happen soon, and COVID 19 hastened them.

        Local media relies on ads from local restaurants & retailers who even if they had the $ would be driving customers to closed doors

        When the largest companies in the U.S, the ones that run our society every day, don't ever make money and need constant investors; It just takes something like this to break 'em alllll down. The startup economy is DEAD

        Yes as we know the secret to the startup economy is paid newspaper ads

        Reason “so many of them that I have lost count” that I wish that we had just done simple cash transfers to individual Americans and nothing else. If they then want to lend it to or invest in cruise ship companies or media organizations or whatever, their choice.

        Oh, yeah, some of the layoffs are absolutely some businesses that would fail in time just failing faster or an excuse for some businesses to pull back under the cover of the virus.

        Are you saying that agenda driven news coverage is a bad business model?

        How could a news organization be set back during a time where people are glued to their tvs and phones searching for content? Sounds sketchy to me.

        Perhaps it’s the lack of ad dollars on the other side of the business model.
