Clear Channel Radio today concluded the restructuring its new owners began in January. Some 590 staffers got pink slips today, spread across engineering, IT, business office operations, programming and on-air – although the company was careful to note that programming and on-air are not the majority of today’s job eliminations. In all, nearly 2,500 positions have been eliminated this year, or nearly 12% of the staff that existed on December 31, 2008.
