NBCUniversal Announces 500 Layoffs
Hey, at least they did their job getting Obama re-elected. Now these folks can enjoy their job well done while on the unemployment line. Seems to be a lot of layoffs these days. I wonder why?
A sporadic series of job cuts NBC Universal has been making since August will amount to 500 positions, or 1.5% of the workforce, by year’s end.
A source at the conglom confirmed the number circulating in published reports but characterized the eliminations as “nips and cuts” aimed at reducing inefficiencies across many different divisions, as opposed to the broader layoffs that rocked NBC Universal in the years before its acquisition by Comcast.

Please tell me that Brian Williams and David Gregory are on that list – and every other NBC news anchor/reporter for that matter.

Elections have consequences! But don’t worry, this time around Obama really, really won’t rest (or play golf) until every American who wants a job has one! (Right up there with “If you like your health insurance, you can keep it!)

Tis’ the only upside to Obama winning this election.. pure entertainment watching these leftist ass hats(speaking of hats Happy Birthday big furry) getting what they deserve. Allow me to say this in Oliver’s voice in regards to mass layoffs …”Can I have some more please?”

Why stop there, NBCUniversal?
Shitcan the useless eaters and chair-moisteners in the entire NBC News Division and the entire staff in the MSNBC Division.
