Considering today's circumstances, sure, I might take a gamble on it.

from that link:

The furloughs affect all employees at USA Today and USA Weekend except those working in sports, travel, direct sales, according to the memo. The employees must take their furloughs by June 24.

Any updates on who is in charge on a day to day basis?

Morgan's right-hand man, Ahern, is at least temporarily in charge.

Monte Lorell is apparently still employed. I'd guess they're looking for a space elsewhere in the company. At least one displaced sports manager has stayed in the building.

Mary Byrne is returning to USAT to become the ME for sports.

Worked with Mary and will obviously back up 1HPGrad. One of the best and a great move for her and USAT. Very happy to wake up to hear this news.
