http://www.alleyinsider.com/ 2008/ 3/ cnet_shedding_120_employees_in_reorganization
CNET is firing 120 employees -- 10% of its U.S. workforce, according to Reuters, or 4.4% of its worldwide workforce -- in a "realignment to more appropriately allocate resources," the company said, in a filing with the SEC. The company estimates the restructuring will cost $3.5 to $4 million in severance pay. CNET is under pressure from activist investor group JANA & Co., which is trying to elect 7 members to the board.
