The Dayton Daily News will cut newsroom employees in an effort to deal with a fluctuating and volatile market, the newspaper's owner, Cox Ohio Publishing, announced Monday, the Dayton Business Journal reported.
The newsroom cuts will hopefully make the Ohio, United States-based newspaper “more flexible and responsive to changing market conditions,” Kevin Riley, the newspaper's editor, stated in a news release.
The layoffs are expected to be less than 10 out of total of 120 employees, said Emily Chambers, the newspaper's vice president of human resources, the Dayton Business Journal reported. However, before final decisions are made on the layoffs, it will be discussed with the editorial union, the Dayton Newspaper Guild.
The Guild represents around 150 full and part time editorial employees.
