In B.C. the layoffs include virtually all of the online team, along with many others.
The business is increasingly cruel, and the hollowing out of newsrooms providing fair and reliable information continues to suck.

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade.
They departed Texas 5 days ago.
