Maybe it just changed, but there is an article and not a link to the WSJ. You can also use this to read the WSJ article:

#5I feel bad for the 15%, but this was necessary. They are severely over-hired. I've gone over there a few times to talk to folks and it's clear that they have a lot of people that are basically making work for themselves because no one has any work for them that actually helps the business.

#6So I guess she did mean something when she said, "No layoffs...this week" [1]
Brutal.

Nope. They closed that workaround.
The article was indeed changed; edited OP.

#8I don't really get what these abbreviations and commas in the titles are all about.
It saves 3 characters over "Yahoo to cut 15% of jobs and close several units". Maybe allow for more Twitter hashtags?

> no one has any work for them that actually helps the business.
What is their business now? Having no work is a leadership problem. If there really is no work then layoffs are a must, but the company is floundering around with no real direction....

I did a quick search just to see what other media is using.
CNBC> Yahoo to cut 15 percent jobs, close several units: WSJ
reuters seems to have updated the title.
Even though it said WSJ, WSJ has a different headline.
