NEW YORK, Nov 20 (Reuters) - The Associated Press plans to cut up to 10
percent of its workforce in 2009, according to sources at the news
service, as it copes with tough financial times and ailing member
newspapers.
The AP has one of the world's largest news-gathering teams, employing
about 3,000 journalists, and a total of about 4,100 people worldwide. The
cuts could amount to about 400 employees.
AP Chief Executive Tom Curley delivered the news as part of a "town hall"
meeting with employees.
