The Washington Post plans to cut nearly 4 percent of its total workforce in the coming days, the company said Tuesday.
A Post spokesperson said the cuts are part of plans to make larger changes across several of its business functions and would result in the reduction of up to 100 employee roles.
The outlet’s advertising department will have 73 positions eliminated, according to an internal memo from company leadership that was obtained by The New York Times.
“The Washington Post is continuing its transformation to meet the needs of the industry, build a more sustainable future and reach audiences where they are,” a Post spokesperson told The Hill. “Changes across our business functions are all in service of our greater goal to best position The Post for the future.”
