Reporters at The Washington Post wanted answers about major job cuts during a contentious one-hour meeting Wednesday with top brass. In a session that grew testy between leadership and staff, Stonesifer outlined the dismal roadmap that led the Post to its decision to offer voluntary buyouts. Despite the current measures to rein in costs, Stonesifer couldn’t definitively say more job cuts wouldn’t come. Stonesifer said she made a mistake in committing to that, and Dawsey questioned her on why the Post leadership’s economic projections were off. Stonesifer promised he was engaged and committed to the Post, but she said he didn’t ask for the buyouts.
