Bloomberg BusinessWeek Layoffs Begin: 25 Staffers Shown The Door

Bloomberg BusinessWeek has shown 25 staffers the door, confirming rumors that another round of layoffs were going to hit the publication before its April relaunch.

Talking Biz News confirms that Tom Lowry, who covered media and marketing, and Michelle Conlin, who covered workplace issues, are both out, and sources say that most of the art and photo departments have lost their jobs as well.

Lowry was with the magazine for 11 years; Conlin ironically (in the Alanis sense) wrote this piece a few months ago.
