US numbers on newsroom jobs show that the biggest relative declines (from 2000 - 2013) occurred in the visual field - which showed a 43% decline. Reporters were next at 32% fewer jobs, while production work (copy editors, layout, and online) dropped by 27 per cent. Judging by my own newsroom experience, the Canadian experience is probably pretty analogous. Wonder what the trends are in paid content (PR, social marketing etc)? (Bet its waaaay up) And wonder what THAT means for the overall quality of information were all consuming....
