Sarasota cutbacks
August 9, 2007 at 2:37 pm by Wayne GarciaYesterday the Sarasota Herald-Tribune let it slip announced more details about how it is joining the long list of daily newspapers that are slashing their newsrooms, bureaus and coverage.
I say let it slip because Last month, as E&P points out, the newspaper buried the lede its woes in a broader story about industrywide problems and only deep in the story getting around to the 58 news jobs that are going bye-bye. it looks like. This week, the newspaper was more forthcoming and prominently played the changes.
(Thanks to a sharper reader than I for pointing out that my original take on this was wrong and that the E&P piece was published last month. Mea culpa.)
