AP wants to lay off 30 more U.S. journalists and move those roles to India.
That’s after laying off or buying out nearly 150 U.S. staffers over the past two years.
On Saturday, while covering a protest at Delaney Hall for the AP, Angelina Katsanis' camera bag went missing.
Inside was $10K worth of gear, her biz cards and an Airtag -- which soon began to ping from home of a NJ sergeant. He's now facing charges.

On May 15, Associated Press leadership cut 20 guild covered staff. Layoffs included U.S. news, photographers, investigations, business and sports across 12 states.
Another hall of fame class of journalists is leaving @AP — this one involuntarily via layoffs. Reporters in big cities and state capitols. People who’ve broken some of the biggest stories of our time and improved the public’s understanding of important issues. It’s heartbreaking.

Sharing some truly surreal news:
My colleagues and I have won the Pulitzer prize for International Reporting.
An incredible honor. And a real team effort.

A hall of fame class of journalists is leaving @AP today — 40 reporters and photo/videographers who've taken buyouts as our US news operation shrinks. They've broken untold stories, captured searing images, held power to account and made us all smarter. We'll miss them dearly.

Today, 40 Associated Press guild-covered employees across the U.S. who accepted buyouts left the newsroom for the final time. We’ve been told layoffs will be coming, with no clear timeline.
In solidarity, our members in office, at home, and in the field wore their union red today.

AP journalists in the U.S. are on the frontlines providing essential news coverage and documenting history each and every day.
AP was there because WE were there.
But more than 120 AP guild covered employees across the country were offered buyouts on April 6, and layoffs could be coming. And that makes the guild wonder, will AP be there for you in the future?

Great working with @Josh_Kelety and @AP, @LeeEntNews on the struggles facing Midwest soybean farmers. A lot working against the American farmer.
