Forbes….Oh No You Didn’t!

On Monday, The New York Times reported that Forbes planned to layoff a number of its staff members on both the editorial and business sides. No shocker there. The fact that most print publications are like sinking ships in the night right now is no secret.

What I wasn’t expecting was for much of the staff who run ForbesLife and ForbesTraveler.com to also get the boot! Say what? Isn’t the digital/online media realm supposed to be experiencing rapid-fire growth right now (or did I dream that)?

I had a minor conniption when I saw that Lauren Sherman was one of those who were let go. Does this mean no more “ForbesLife Find of the Day”? I can’t deal with this torture. Forbes: I’d like to see some kind of public statement, please. Thanks.
