https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/05/sports/the-athletic-layoffs.html The Athletic, the sports journalism subscription website that became a bright spot for a beleaguered industry in recent years, said in a memo Friday that it is laying off 46 employees in its editorial and business departments, amounting to 8 percent of its staff. It also imposed a staffwide pay cut of at least 10 percent for all employees. 近來興起的運動媒體領導品牌The Athletic 在週五宣告解雇46位員工這差不多是全部的8%員工剩下的員工則接受至少10%減薪 “In order to ensure we can be a viable business for many seasons to come, we have to make decisions that won’t jeopardize our future,” said Taylor Patterson, a spokeswoman for The Athletic. The Athletic表示為了維持未來的運作他們不得不做出決定 The Athletic launched its first local site in 2016, in Chicago, and quickly grew to cover nearly every major professional sports team in the United States, as well as dozens of professional soccer teams abroad. As tech giants like Facebook and Google have gobbled up most online advertising dollars and the news media has steadily contracted, The Athletic represents the hopes of many in the sportswriting industry that an alternative business model can be found. The company makes the vast majority of its revenue through subscriptions, which usually cost $60 a year but are frequently discounted. The Athletic has nearly a million subscribers according to Patterson. That rapid growth has been fueled by nearly $140 million in venture capital funding, including $50 million raised earlier this year. 從2016年成立以來快速成長公司主要的營收來自每年60$ 接近1M用戶的訂閱另外還有140M的創投資金包括今年稍早的一筆50M --- MLB砍人減薪 => 太可惡了球團老闆藏錢好邪惡運動媒體砍人減薪 => 合理手段維持正常商業運轉 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 172.91.99.174 (美國) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/MLB/M.1591473794.A.81B.html
