NPR to Fire 10% of Staff After $30M Budget Gap, Largest Layoff Since 2008
Taxpayer-funded NPR will lay off ten percent of its workforce, going from approximately 1,200 to about 1,050 employees, after the left-wing media company failed to generate enough revenue, the organization announced Thursday.
NPR, whose budget is subsidized nearly 11 percent by taxpayer funds, announced a staggering $30 million budget shortfall. The gap will impact ten percent of the media company’s employees and force the organization to cut four podcasts. The network vowed most cut employees would stay on until April 28.
Looks like the leftists failed to step-up during those fund drives.
No worries, I hear learning to code is pretty easy......They should look into it.
