@MaryAnnKoruth You’re so right! And cheers to it!

[Lauren Ellen Blankenship @lblank12]

Slowly adjusting to life without being a newspaper editor as my time with #gannett came to an end Friday with the #gannettlayoffs
Thankful for everything I learned and the people I met.
Brighter days are ahead🌟

@lblank12 An editor-reporter relationship is so great and so unique. Cheers to your next one. 🥂

Hi, if you're a local journalist looking for work, or think you might be soon... email in bio. I'm about to do a lot of local hiring

@JimmyGeurts @Gannett ♥️♥️♥️

[Jimmy Geurts @JimmyGeurts]

I, along with my @Gannett union colleagues, will not attend today's town hall with our CEO Mike Reed. We call ourselves #TeamGannett, yet Reed continues to earn millions while staff earning a fraction of that face layoffs. Does that sound like a team effort? #AnswerUsMike

@RebeccaAguilar I was a editor in Louisiana until last Friday with the Gannett layoffs lol

Just sent out the first note to those who were impacted by #GannettLayoffs with a guide to accessing all the help we've collected.

An important note: If you report you were laid off, your information will be kept private.

DM me if you need the form to request aid.

Schooled my 3 year old nephew in duck racing today; not proud of myself, but had fun (me not Ben). Sorry Bennie, at least you got to ride a horse. @ CM Farms https://t.co/dsUpUnGvb3
