I think you misread my comment. I wasn't saying that the entire NY media establishment is approaching zero employees. I was strictly speaking of the classic "guy who gets paid to write stuff that nobody reads because it's good for the community/country/brand/whatever, while people on some other beat bring in the eyeballs and pay the bills." That's the population that's shrinking really fast.

Ah, OK. Sorry, I overestimated your cynicism...I read it as, "the New York media establishment writes stuff that nobody reads" :)
