As trust in Legacy Media plummets to an all-time low, online news networks began mass lay-offs of journalists in December 2018 and January 2019.
“This is going to be a tough week,” Ben Smith, the editor in chief of BuzzFeed News, wrote in an email to his staff on Wednesday. On Friday, the newsroom learned just how tough, when the company laid off 43 of the roughly 250 journalists who worked in that division, according to a BuzzFeed spokesman.
The cut was the start of a planned 15 percent reduction of the overall work force at BuzzFeed, a company perhaps best known for producing content meant to be shared on social media. The layoffs, which the staff learned about from an email sent by the BuzzFeed founder Jonah Peretti, are expected to continue into next week and affect around 200 employees.”
“The Huffington Post cut down its commentary and healthcare teams Thursday.
“As of this morning, HuffPost’s opinion section is no more. I and the rest of the team have been let go,” the former head of the opinion section at Huffington Post, Bryan Maygers, tweeted. …”
Journalism today in a nutshell: mass layoffs and death threats from racist trolls https://t.co/blTVJpgnrH

Verizon Media Group (formerly known as Oath) owns Huffington Post, Yahoo and AOL, and Gannett, which owns USA Today as well as local newspapers across the country cut 800 positions. GateHouse Media, one of the largest local newspaper publishers in the US, has been quietly laying off journalists across the country since the end of January. Business Insider has confirmed at least 60 layoffs. Vice Media cut approximately 250 positions in December 2018-January 2019.
Legacy Media bewailed “right-wing hordes” originating from the darkweb’s “right-wing cesspools” piling on online harassment of journalists, posting on social media that laid off “journalists” should learn to code. In an exercise of SJW cosmic T’ai Chi, triggered journalists accused anyone of spreading the “learn to code” meme as a bonafide member of the “AltRight” and a neo-nazi troll. What Legacy Media journalists failed to realize is that the darkweb never forgets or forgives. “Learn to Code” is a case of memetic karma for journalists complicit in anti-white rhetoric and Globalist agenda.
In 2014, Kentucky white coal-miners found themselves unemployed after Michael Bloomberg funneled tens of millions into an anti-coal campaign. Journalists were there to troll. Article after article started appearing in publications from ABC to NPR and everything in between offering unsolicited advice to laid off white blue-collar workers: learn to code.
Jewish “journalist” Talia Lavin, who was hired by Media Matters last year after being fired by the New Yorker for smearing an ICE agent as a Nazi because she thought a tattoo he had looked like an iron cross, was highly triggered:
The “Learn to Code” meme has been repeated by Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), Tucker Carlson, and President Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr. Talia Lavin responded with her own online write-up “The Fetid, Right-Wing Origins of “Learn to Code.” NBC News chimed in to Lavin’s defense with their own column bemoaning the darkweb: “4chan trolls flood laid off HuffPost, BuzzFeed reporters with death threats.” Essentially, these Social Justice “journalists” miss thought policing and intimidating ordinary Americans. It illustrates how “journalists” have become nothing more than Soviet Commissars.
