The Washington Post is the latest media company to conduct layoffs, with cuts hitting multiple departments.

Sally Buzbee, executive editor of The Post, described the decision to cut the jobs as “difficult” in a memo to employees and disclosed that the newspaper had identified 30 open roles that it will no longer fill. “While such changes are not easy, evolution is necessary for us to stay competitive, and the economic climate has guided our decision to act now,” Buzbee said. “We believe these steps will ultimately help us to fulfill our mission to scrutinize power and empower readers.

But we’re not done fighting or standing up for each other.” Buzbee said in her memo that employees impacted by the layoffs are being offered severance and are eligible to apply for other open roles. The layoffs come days after The Post’s owner, Jeff Bezos, visited the newsroom and held meetings with Ryan and Buzbee. Ryan’s December announcement about future layoffs prompted fury inside the Post newsroom, nearly a dozen employees at The Post told CNN at the time.
