Want a somewhat educated guess on the layoffs at the newspaper

Formerly known as the Washington Post but now referred to as the GoofyBaldheadedBillionaireMotherfuckerPo?

This is all about the fucking, space-penis-head taking out an interest only loan against the rag, which was probably overvalued for some significant sum of money (let's call it $500,000,000). Now that the value of putrid vomitus of digital ink has been devalued for any number of reasons, the bank or banks probably in a conference call said something like this, "Ok, motherfucker, you took our money, devalued your asset and think you can make up for it with mass layoffs. Nah-ah, asswipe, margin call, give us our money back by close of business, fuckstick. Good luck trying to liquidate your holdings, you worthless shitbag."

At least that's my fantasy.
