Philadelphia Media Network, parent company of The Inquirer, the Philadelphia Daily News, and Philly.com, plans to lay off 46 members of Newspaper Guild Local 10 in December, 10.5 percent of the membership, the union said Monday.
PMN confirmed that it had sent a memo to the Guild saying that "approximately 46 members would be impacted" as part of a planned consolidation of the three newsrooms announced Friday by publisher and CEO Terrance C.Z. Egger.
Additional cutbacks are expected among management and in areas outside the newsrooms, Egger said Monday.
