Devastating news for Las Vegas solo VJs

The Las Vegas Sun pulled the plug on 702.tv!

The project, described as “a Las Vegas-based news and entertainment video Web site and television program,” has been canceled after only four months, and a number of staff members either laid off or reassigned.

Norm Clarke, a columnist for the competing Las Vegas Review-Journal, first reported that half a dozen videographers were laid off on Tuesday. Clarke gleaned at least some of his information from postings on Facebook and Twitter.

I wrote a critique of 702.tv when it first came out. It’s shocking that they pulled the plug after only four short months. Seems like a damn shame.

My heart goes out to those who lost their jobs. Keep your head up! You’ll find opportunities, even if it take a while. Keep your confidence up no matter what happens.
