Where reporters go

Someone decided to check up on the reporters from the now defunct Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Here’s what she found:

· Half have new full-time jobs, and just over 50% are working as journalists. The rest are in corporate or non-profit communications, business etc.

· Almost 25% percent have started their own full-time or part-time media ventures.

· Nine are studying at college.

· Seventeen (20%) are on unemployment benefit.

· One is a full-time parent and two are retired.

· Almost 60% of those who are employed say they are earning less than at the P-I.
