Read previewAn uptick in disciplinary actions during Emma Tucker's reign at The Wall Street Journal has unnerved the newsroom, and now a former Journal reporter has filed a lawsuit challenging them. The lawsuit, filed by Stephanie Armour, alleges that she was fraudulently targeted for dismissal starting in April 2024 despite excelling in her job. Some said they saw the moves as a way to get rid of high-earning employees who are protected from being fired without cause by Journal publisher Dow Jones' union, IAPE. It was formed after Rupert Murdoch's acquisition of Dow Jones in 2007 to allay concerns of Dow Jones' longtime former owners, the Bancroft family. Dow Jones and editorial leadership haven't immediately responded to requests for comment from Business Insider.

Read previewEmma Tucker's arrival at The Wall Street Journal a little over a year ago was met with enthusiasm. This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Business Insider talked to a dozen insiders for this story; many of them said they had felt a shift from optimism to angst regarding Tucker and the newsroom generally. A Journal spokesperson said Tucker wasn't available to comment but offered an interview with Taneth Evans, Tucker's associate editor. Evans told Business Insider that the changes were drawn out to give the new leadership time to understand how the newsroom works.

The effort came at a nervous time for the Journal newsroom. It's still reeling from February, when the paper sharply cut its DC newsroom, its second-biggest bureau after New York. Tucker wrote at the time that the DC bureau changes were enacted to put the company in the position to serve readers better and stand out from the competition. The union has filed grievances over the DC bureau layoffs and is considering filing grievances over the meetings, Martell said. But the mood among some has turned as Tucker has enacted layoffs in a newsroom that's largely been spared staff cuts.

Rupert Murdoch's The Wall Street Journal made widespread cuts to its DC bureau on Thursday in a restructuring that several insiders called a "bloodbath." They were also, however, expected, since staffers had been told a restructuring was coming in preparation for the installation of the Journal's new Washington coverage chief Damian Paletta, who starts February 5. The new Washington bureau will focus on politics, policy, defense, law, intelligence and national security. The expanded Finance & Economics coverage area will unify our reporting on the macroeconomy, global economic trends, monetary policy, credit and banking, and financial markets. Brent Kendall, the law bureau chief, will take on the expanded role of Justice, Judiciary and Law Editor.

News Corp CEO Robert Thomson sends staff memo about the importance of in-person collaboration. The news comes a day after layoffs at News Corp unit Dow Jones that affected less than 2% of staff. The CEO flagged that he'd be asking business leads to consult with managers to "ensure full compliance with in-office work schedules," which "will evolve in the coming weeks," he wrote. The Wall Street Journal's in-office staffing situation in New York is currently being monitored by the company, according to two sources.
