Delco News Network Layoffs — Most of the editorial staff at Delco News Network was laid off yesterday, Jan. 8. The bloodletting consisted of managing editor David Bjorkgren, Springfield Press editor Amy Winnemore, sports editor Joe Arcidiacono, and Arts and Life editor Margie Royal.
The Delco News Network is the website for Garnet Valley Press, founded by my parents and myself, County Press, Springfield Press, News of Delaware County and Town Talk, all weekly newspapers that once enjoyed lively competition but have long since been part of a single holding.
I’ve long known Dave and Margie. They are great people and great journalists.
Dave’s farewell column can be found here.
