AP lays off employees to hit cost-cutting goal
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Associated Press laid off an undisclosed number of news employees Tuesday as part of the cooperative's yearlong plan to cut worldwide payroll expenses by 10 percent. AP spokesman Paul Colford refused to specify how many jobs were eliminated Tuesday or in previous months from the news staff and other departments throughout the company.

However, the AP has said it would cut jobs held by people with a mix of wages so the cuts wouldn't necessarily translate into a 10 percent reduction in total jobs. The AP's salaries and other labor-related expenses totaled nearly $419 million last year, up 2 percent from 2007.La...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
