New York Daily News Sports Section Cutting Jobs from 35 to Nine; Frank Isola Writes Farewell

The New York Daily News is undergoing an unfathomable amount of cuts today, with parent company Tronc announcing today that the newspaper would be cutting about 50% of its staff.

According to a farewell address from longtime Knicks writer Frank Isola, the cuts are even worse in the sports section, which is going from 35 to nine today.

That is absolutely gutting news, and there’s no way to sugarcoat it.
