Paramount targets massive round of layoffs in early November, NY post says

Paramount is eyeing early November for what may end up being a massive round of layoffs following its merger with Skydance Media, the New York Post’s Alexandra Steigrad reports. New president Jeff Shell has told managers at the media company to start compiling so-called “kill lists,” the author says, citing a source with knowledge of the matter. The list of staff set to be terminated in October, a move which is designed to save the company over $2B, the author notes.
