The Washington Post is making a round of layoffs, and cutting its video game label Launcher in the process, according to Axios media reporter Sara Fischer.
Fischer posted to her Twitter account a memo Washington Post executive editor Sally Buzbee sent to staff today saying that the outlet is laying off 20 people from the newsroom and will not fill an additional 30 open positions that had been listed.
While the memo does not mention Launcher, Fischer cited two sources with saying the Post is sunsetting both the gaming label and KidsPost, a section written for students in grades 2 through 7.
