Stormy Weather in the Forecast for Unemployment

The latest unemployment numbers are due to be released, and The Takeaway talks with Peter Morici, a business professor at the University of Maryland, Jozen Cummings of the now-closed Vibe Magazine, and Wayne Cooper, a laid off printing technician.

As we wait for the latest unemployment numbers to be released tomorrow, Peter Morici, a professor at the University of Maryland’s business school, joins us with his forecast. We also talk to Jozen Cummings, who was an articles editor at the now-closed Vibe Magazine, about why he won’t look for work in a different field, despite the challenge of working in a diminishing sector of the economy. We also speak with Wayne Cooper, a recently laid off pre-press printing technician from Clearwater, Florida, about the challenge of figuring out your next step.
