"Lycos has cut back the editorial staff at Wired News as part of a restructuring of the online media company's Web sites.

The layoffs, announced to employees on Monday, leave the iconic technology Web site Wired.com with no employees bearing the title "staff writer."

In all, three reporters, an unknown number of production employees and two business-side people lost their jobs. The two remaining staff writers had their titles changed to editor. "

Another icon of the .com era gone?

I wouldn't know. I always thought it was fluff for venture capitalists.

Not gone, they just got rid of the in-house journalists.
We'll have to see what'll happen to the quality of the articles.

Can't be anything but an improvement, can it?
