This week, I published a 3,000-word feature story about the human toll of the 2019 media layoff apocalypse over at Medium’s GEN publication. In total, depending on your count, there were somewhere between 3,000-ish and 7,000-ish layoffs this year. (I suspect the real answer is on the higher end of counts/estimates). The story was the result of several weeks of interviews with about 40 people across North America who were either laid off from their media jobs this year or bought out of their jobs (which, let’s be honest, is just a nicer kind of layoff).
