[Reach Publisher Cuts 220 Editorial Positions to Address AI Summary Impact] According to Deep Tide TechFlow on September 16, as reported by *The Guardian*, UK media publisher Reach, which owns *The Mirror* and *The Express*, announced the reduction of 220 editorial positions. The reason cited is a significant shift of readers toward AI-generated summaries, leading to a sharp decline in website traffic. The company's Chief Content Officer, David Higgerson, stated that this is the result of a "major transformation" in how audiences consume content. Reach's data shows that traffic from Google has dropped 46% year-on-year, and digital revenue has slightly decreased to £128.9 million. Meanwhile, the company will shut down three online brands—KentLive, AberdeenLive, and GalwayBeo—and create approximately 60 new editorial positions, focusing on subscription services and long-form video content to explore sustainable development paths.
