Did you read the article? The Times now employs more people than it ever has and is doing better financially than ever.
- damnencryption 6y agoYes I did. It didn't mention anything about more employees (mostly policies to encourage more POC). Although it does mention the expansion of their digital media. That seems fine to me but what about total employees from both digital and paper? https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/NYT/new-york-times/number-of-employees https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/NYT/new-york-times...
- eyko 6y agoFrom the article: "It has hired hundreds of journalists to staff a newsroom that is now 1,700 people strong — bigger than ever. Its stock has risen fourfold since Trump took office, and the Times has consolidated its Trump bump into a business that includes Serial Productions, the podcast juggernaut; Audm, the audio-translation business; and a TV show based on the Times series “Modern Love” that was filming its second season this summer, until a COVID-19 false positive on-set forced it to halt shooting. More than a million people subscribe to its Crossword and Cooking apps alone, and the company has been able to weather the pandemic in part because it now has more cash on hand—$800 million—than at any point in its history."
