The Journal-Sentinel gave a bunch of long-time staffers at the paper a choice: leave and we'll give you a week's pay for every year you worked here, or we'll be forced to lay you off and a bunch of your co-workers because of your greediness. Duane Dudek said he had to get a calculator out and figure out how long he's been at the paper and what his buyout amount would be. So he's leaving and a number of others are too. It's all related to the newspaper separating from the TV station and radio station in a recently announced merger.
