18/11/08 – 131 journojobs gone

I was so irritated by David Cameron's fatuous speech to the Newspaper Society that I moved from one of the 90, through one of the nine to a number one (a little digital joke there).

If you feel the need, you too can read Cameron's piffle.

What he fails to recognise is that local newspaper groups are killing themselves by cutting back on local news. IT'S NOT THE BBC'S FAULT, DAVID.

Need proof? Here it comes, day by relentless day for as long as I can manage.

Trinity Mirror cuts are criticised by the Welsh Assembly.

Illiffe is cutting 80 jobs in Cambridge and Staffordshire.

From last week, subbing jobs under threat at Newsquest Hampshire.
