The walkout comes after reporters sent a letter to their bosses, Executive Editor Dean Baquet and Managing Editor Joe Kahn, expressing disappointment in upcoming cuts to the copy desk.
"We write to you as the saved — those whose copy, facts and sometimes the intelligibility of a sentence or two have been hammered into shape by our friends and colleagues on the editing desks," the letter said, according to Poynter. "Our editors ask smart questions, engage passionately with our copy, and serve as our safety nets. Editors – and yes, that especially means copy editors — save reporters and The Timesevery day from countless errors, large and small."
The upcoming layoffs threaten to cut the copy desk's staff nearly in half.
Copy editors wrote their own letter Wednesday, alleging that the company's top editors turned their backs on the edit desk.
Sarah Maslin Nir, a Timesreporter, posted video of the walk out, which showed a significantly empty newsroom.
