Layoffs in Riverside*, **

Layoffs are underway at the Press-Enterprise in Riverside. A big meeting is planned for 5:30 p.m. Who and how many yet to be determined.

The newspaper just went through a round of buyouts and departures.

*UPDATE: I'm told management is looking to axe about 30 people overall, at least 10 from the editorial side.

Also, the P-E just promoted two executives to expand Spanish-language and new media initiatives.

**UPDATEII: IEPapers posts some of the names of those pink slipped today.
