A taste of things to come? Newsday announces plan to lay of 32 more people to "reduce management layers. The newspaper, which laid of 120 people in March, is being acquired by Cablevision. [Newsday]
Job cuts announced at Ottaway Newspapers, too. [Cape Cod Times]
The F.C.C. could soon auction off a segment of the broadband spectrum, which might lead to free internet. [Portfolio]
On the one hand, this Fox News anchor would like nothing more than to continue beating up on Rachel Ray and the offensive (to right-wing pundits) scarf she wore in a Dunkin' Donuts commercial. On the other hand, Dunkin' Donuts is a sponsor. And now he, and everyone watching, knows that, thanks to the audible whisper of his co-anchor. [Gawker]
Jon Fine still wants to know if Felix Dennis killed someone, as he recently confessed to a journalist after five bottles of wine. This time, after three and a half bottles, Dennis denies it. [BusinessWeek]
Older journalists can learn to blog, too. Witness 64-year-old Andrew Malcolm of the Los Angeles Times. [PBS] via [Poynter]
