[UPDATE 4:55 P.M.] An article posted on the Democrat and Chronicle’s website says that the company laid of six full-time workers and one part-time worker today. The article doesn’t specify where those cuts occurred.

Original post: Layoffs are hitting the Democrat and Chronicle newsroom this morning, according to unconfirmed reports.

The extent of the layoffs isn’t clear, but a source confirms that they are happening. And the paper’s political reporter Jessica Alaimo just tweeted that she’d been laid off from the paper, effective immediately.
