By Rachel Kaufman - Media Jobs DailyCBS News has cut about 90 positions, closing bureaus and cutting staff in others, various sources report.
The Los Angeles Times quotes a staffer, quoting a news exec who was presumably shellshocked by the cuts as well: "We were covering the news with one arm tied behind our back. Now we're going to do it with two arms tied behind our back."
The bureaus in Washington, Los Angeles and London each lost close to a dozen positions; the Moscow bureau has been shuttered, and the Tel Aviv bureau's been reduced to one person.
From TVNewser: Four "Early Show" staffers have been cut, too, as well as eleven staffers in the San Francisco bureau.

Sadly, Media cut jobs. Many cutbacks are attributed to the slowing economy and advertising market, disappointing results at online units, restructurings in the aftermath of mergers, and business shutdowns
