While the New York Times might consider itself much more of an international media brand than a newspaper, the Old Gray Lady might be staring at mass layoffs, just like its broadsheet brethren.

The New York Post’s Keith J. Kelly reported Friday that the Times could cut as many as 30 editorial employees in the next 10 days, calling it the paper's first mass-firing in 156 years.

Sources told Kelly that with the Wall Street Journal increasingly challenging the Times, the business and national desks will mostly be spared.
