00:06warning that shrinking coverage would weaken the paper's journalism and subscriber growth.
00:11In letters obtained by CNN, reporters argued that political coverage depends heavily on collaboration with foreign, local, and other desks now facing cuts.
00:20The appeals come amid signs of imminent layoffs and fears that the paper is scaling back to irrelevance under current leadership.
