Dallas Morning News lays off a bunch of reporters, editors, and other news types. And a bunch of other non-news types, about 150 in all. Very sad day.
I mention it only because a few people have already asked, but I am luckily not among that number. My gainful employment continues. But at least one crabwalk.com reader was not so lucky. As I said, a very sad day.
