Report: ESPN Is Laying Off Hundreds Of People
May 21, 2013, 1:26 PM
|
|
Probably no one in their SEC division;
"A tipster told Deadspin that ESPN is planning to lay off more than 400 employees today.
A source at ESPN confirmed to Deadspin that layoffs were planned, and while 400 seemed high, the number of layoffs will be "in the hundreds."
As Deadspin also points out, ESPN may need to cut costs because they have recently gotten rights to several live events (like the US Open Finals) which are very expensive."

I don't want to see anybody lose a job. The trickle down effects too many people.

and others that have popped up lately.
And did I not see an "ESPNW" sign (Women, I assume) this weekend? It was at a softball game.
They can kill that piece of crap magazine too.

A still-employed ESPN source tells me that ESPNU's new late-night show UNITE will be canceled in July. The staff of the show found out today. The source tells me "that people on the show who have not been with ESPN for more than 10 months are being let go. 65% of the staff was hired nine months ago." We're not sure how many people this will impact but my source says more than a dozen will lose their jobs from this.
