    GateHouse and Ogden are two horrific companies. Just so the current employees know you can look for a minimum of 50 percent of the total workforce at each property gone by this time next year. From what I've read, Ogden acts quickly; GateHouse probably takes a little longer before lopping staff. To anybody familiar with Ogden/GateHouse, is this correct?
