The proposed layoffs at CNN have started and they are sweeping through the network like a California wildfire.

FTVLive told you that CNN had wiped out their entertainment news division, now word comes that the used to do cable news network has cut Christiane Amanpour's entire staff in New York as part of the restructuring.

Mashable says that Amanpour, CNN's Chief International Correspondent and Anchor of a nightly foreign affairs program, will continue to produce international news segments and a daily show out of London, where more of her staff is located.

Of course CNN spokesperson Allison Gollust declined to provide specifics on how many jobs were affected.

Which begs the question, why do you need a spokesperson, if they are not going to talk?

Sounds like that is one of the jobs that should be cut.

Just saying....
