PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- The Providence Journal Co. laid off 23 full-time
workers Wednesday as part of a cost-cutting effort, including 16 members
of the Providence Newspaper Guild and 7 non-union employees.
The cutback represents 5 percent of The Journal's workforce. The
reductions come about two months after 11 employees accepted a voluntary
separation offer.
