Good luck, Jay

Like the Globe before it, the Herald is planning on making some significant staff cuts this year. They will also start to print their daily Boston commuter paper in...Chicopee.

The story isn't clear on where the staff cuts will take place. Could they all be on the printing end since they will outsource that function? If not, how many will be on the reporting and editing end of things?

The Globe had to buy out a number of experienced, quality writers and editors.

Jay Fitzgerald, a Business Reporter over there and author of the Someday I Will-friendly "Hub Blog," may have time to write more of his high quality posts, unfortuantely. Let's hope not. But, if he can get a tasty severance package and move onto a more rewarding and safe gig, here's to that.
