Cut the Fat, Not the Meat

NBC's feeling it:

NBC boss Jeff Zucker is expected to make big cuts on the newsgathering and operational side of the company's news division, including eliminating an entire level of MSNBC's management team, in a bid to save between $20 million and $40 million, The Post has learned.

Sources inside or close to NBC yesterday claimed the cuts, which are expected to come down this week or next, will be weighted evenly between NBC News and MSNBC.

Now for the good news:

...the shows hosted by Chris Matthews, (and) Keith Olbermann...are sacrosanct and won't be affected by any of the cuts.

Whew.
