Layoffs at the Los Angeles Times

Just received a farewell letter from Margit Rubins, which may be the first of many Los Angeles Times Employees to be let go with the redesign of the Times. Here’s her farewell message to her colleagues:

Greetings all

Today is my last day at the Los Angeles Times. I am not sure of my plans at the moment, but hope to start a business keeping you all informed.

As soon as I know my game plan, I will contact you.

My personal email is mrubins50@yahoo.com. Please feel free to contact me.

Best to you in what should continue to be an exciting year.

Margit Rubins

Margit published a newsletter which focused on the media, with a very large following, she will be missed on a daily basis by all at the newspaper.
