Netflix lays off staffers at newly launched editorial website Tudum

The Hollywood Reporter

The Tudum website was launched last December to serve as a fan site for Netflix shows. But in wake of Netflix's woes, 10 editorial staffers -- including top entertainment journalists -- and contractors were told today they were being laid off. The laid off staffers took to Twitter to vent their frustration. "Netflix recruited me seven months ago only to lay me and a bunch of other talented people off today," tweeted Tudum staffer Evette Dionne. "I’m going to take time off to just exist, so please get in touch if you’ll have editing and content strategy opportunities open after August."
