CEO Mike Reed has decimated newsrooms, destroyed local coverage and turns a blind eye to the financial struggles of his staff while pocketing millions himself.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

We’re joining our fellow @Gannett unions throughout the country on this #LocalNewsLunchOut to protest the layoffs that threaten local news everywhere. Our staff is dedicated to serving the community and shouldn’t suffer while corporate leadership pockets millions each year.

[Steve Berkowitz @ByBerkowitz]

Rutgers was the only Big Ten public school to increase spending on athletics in FY21, during the height of the pandemic. Another probing look at Rutgers' numbers from @AbbottKoloff and @JeanRimbach: https://t.co/AauklHUap6

[Abbott Koloff @AbbottKoloff]

'Takes your breath away': @GovMurphy calls Rutgers athletics' financial woes 'concerning'
via @JeanRimbach @AbbottKoloff https://t.co/DKdEwelSkP

[Abbott Koloff @AbbottKoloff]

It's not the amount of Rutgers' athletics debt. It's the way they got there -- taking loans to cover operating expenses and reporting it as "generated revenue," violating their own policies and NCAA guidelines.
