Much chatter going around today of downsizing in DC’s book trade sales division. We have some names but are waiting for more solid information. The move is not much of a surprise, since it was heavily rumored after DC announced its distribution deal with Random House.Since Random House has its own in-house sales staff which will deal with buyers, the extra sales staff at DC Comics was no longer necessary. Developing.
oh the humanity!!!!
Any updates? Any more solid information come together? I mean, as predictable (and, from a corporate/human resources point-of-view, understandable) as some layoffs may be in certain situations, it’s nice to note those who may have been axed (if those people want to be noted, of course…)
Heidi – Must be nice to be an exclusive reporter for DC Comics, telling one side of the story – theirs.
Journalista – What was the point of your post?
el seed – Ditto
Tommy Raiko – You post anywhere and about anything. What difference would it make naming those who may have been axed ? Are you offering them jobs, compensation, or your post is just another way of keeping this going?
