Yesterday the Telegraph told its staff they were planning to lay-off 20 sub-editors and farms out their work to Press Association.
Did the Telegraph have 20 subs left?
And yes, isn’t that a gorgeous corollary to Muphry’s Law there from Guido.

And yes, isn’t that a gorgeous corollary to Muphry’s Law there from Guido.
The first comment on Guido’s say it all:
“King Herod hired to advise on Childcare.”
Sorry–because they are hiring Coulson for PR as well. Which likely explains where the 20 lots of wages are going.
It is going downhill at an alarming rate. I thought it was just the web stuff that was dire but I got a chance to read a few editions of the paper itself recently and it is 90% guff.
Most articles would slot neatly into the Daily Mail and the rest would not be out of place in the Guardian.
It really is a tragedy.
I always wondered what PR firms did….
Daily Telegraph? Decent crossword, but as for the rest?
I haven’t read the Torygraph since they instituted the pay wall.
Obviously I have missed nothing.
What’s the problem? Specialisation, division of labour innit.
