George Zornick criticized CEO Jonah Peretti for impending layoffs at HuffPost, claiming they will devastate the newsroom just as Trump takes office, questioning if he is yielding to political pressures.
Zornick expressed concern over the layoffs that seem disproportionate to HuffPost's financial status, lamenting the lack of transparency behind such drastic cuts, indicating a troubling trend in the business.
While acknowledging the reality of layoffs in the industry, Zornick highlighted that these cuts to HuffPost's news-gathering operation were shocking and poorly justified based on financial data.
Zornick quoted Ben Smith's article on Ramaswamy's influence, hinting that strategic business decisions might be filtered through a political lens, where cost cuts are prioritized alongside political motivations.
