IndieWire laid off three top employees on Thursday, reports Sean Burch of The Wrap.
Burch reports, “Those exiting the outlet are Executive Editor of News Tony Maglio, TV Executive Editor Erin Strecker and Tom Brueggemann, IndieWire’s box office editor.
“The cuts are the latest to hit one of Penske Media Corporation’s outlets, after Variety laid off three newsroom staffers in October and The Hollywood Reporter laid off several employees last summer.
“PMC reps did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
“The news of their exits was announced to IndieWire staffers early Thursday afternoon. One person with knowledge of the announcement said the staffers were shocked by the layoffs, with all three editors described as well-liked among the IndieWire team.”
