More layoffs at Media Companies

New rounds of layoffs took place Thursday at Condé Nast and Vox Media, the latest cutbacks in the publishing sector as companies look to tighten their belts.
The job cuts at Condé Nast come after the company said earlier this month that it will lay off upwards of 300 employees, representing 5% of total headcount, and take other cost-reduction measures. The layoffs affect staffers at “the New Yorker (which is rare), Vanity Fair (which is being hit particularly hard), and most other brands/titles,” according to Puck media reporter Dylan Beyers.
Reps for Condé Nast didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The New York-based company’s stable of brands includes the New Yorker, Vogue, Wired, Glamour, GQ, Condé Nast Traveler, Vanity Fair, Bon Appétit and Pitchfork.
Vox, whose properties include New York magazine, the Verge and Vox.com, is cutting about 4% of its workforce — its second round of layoffs this year, after reducing its headcount by 7% in January.

The propaganda game must not pay like it once did.

Few are interested in the garbage these publications are putting out. Fewer still are willing to pay for it. These media companies are toast and they will be the last to realize it.

These are the same people that want a communist revolution where their job will be running an LGBTQ+ blog for furries.

Let them wallow in the their own shite. Knowing how media company employees often are, they’ll get off on it.
The biggest issue is that not everyone in those companies will be full blown liberal scum.
Some people are in engineering and I.T. roles.

The entire means of media production has dramatically changed and it isn't done yet.
When Protools came out in audio, anyone could edit and mix audio. The big shops mostly died.
When Avid, Mac and Adobe Premier took root, the big video production houses died. Now, for $57 a month anyone with a decent home computer has more power for video and film production that a company with 10's of millions of bucks in equipment thee decades back.
The same thing is happening in broadcast media and publishing. Anyone with a decent home computer can publish or broadcast streaming. The MSM has become like a gate without a fence.
It still requires talent, but AI may have something to say about that.
