    From the Gawker blog: From a tipster: More details on what appears to be widespread closure of smaller AP bureaus: "Layoffs include Ron Word, the correspondent in Jacksonville who has witnessed some ungodly number of executions for AP.

    I'd love to see Ron Word and Michael Graczyk in an IV-tube-measuring contest.

    In Michigan, I just got word they eliminated the Grand Rapids correspondent and one of the Lansing, as well as the editorial assistant in Detroit.

    So sorry to hear that, and for me personally it's one of those "by the grace of God" things because I left there two years ago and would have absolutely been unemployed as of today.
