The Los Angeles Times laid off nearly 115 journalists in one go over a Zoom call amid the company's financial turbulence. With the layoffs, the newspaper cut down 20 per cent of its newsroom staff. The layoffs, which were announced by the newspaper on Tuesday (Jan 23), affected both union and non-union employees. Some of the staff who were laid off took to X to share their news. The newspaper had already laid off 74 newsroom employees a few months ago.
