One of the after-effects of creating a
"digital-first" operation, as many publishers are doing these days,
is what to do with a sizable share of the employee base that's been dedicated
to the print products. In the case of legal information media company ALM, it's had to cut 35 positions among its
editorial and production ranks.
The cuts were made at the end of June and there were no associated print closures.
The official statement from Kevin Michielsen, chief operating officer of ALM, which employs about 800 people, claims that the eliminations were not a cost-cutting measure, but rather intended to streamline operations.
