Emma Tucker's Wall Street Journal laid off staff in its Hong Kong bureau, and three company insiders said they were bracing for more cuts in the newsroom. The Hong Kong layoffs affected seven editors on a desk that puts finishing touches on stories before they're published, two sources said. People with direct knowledge said they believed the company was looking to save money by shifting the work to other offices. The Hong Kong cuts came shortly after Tucker revealed in September her plan to revive the newsroom with an "audience-first" model, which has fueled speculation that a reorg could be on the way. Hong Kong is the latest example of cuts to the storied newsroom that have dribbled out over the past few months, in keeping with the Journal's practice of trimming small numbers of people.
