Last week, it was rumored that Microsoft was getting ready for a major round of layoffs within the Xbox team. Bloomberg is now reporting that employees in the company’s gaming division were informed of job cuts Wednesday morning. The PC giant has been on a cost-cutting mission lately, announcing it would let go of 3 percent of its global workforce earlier this summer, and announcing a further 9,000 job cuts on Wednesday. According to Bloomberg , Microsoft’s Stockholm-based King division, famous for Candy Crush , is laying off 10 percent of its staff, representing roughly 200 jobs. While some other European gaming offices are also cutting, US units are reportedly being informed later Wednesday.

with The Bulwark writer Tim Miller, Moran, a former senior national correspondent for ABC News, said of his post, "I wrote it because I thought it was true."
In his original X post on June 8, Moran described Stephen Miller as "a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred" and said that his "hatreds are his spiritual nourishment." The post also said that Trump, whom Moran interviewed earlier this year, is a "world-class hater" whose hatred is "a means to an end, and that end his his (sic) own glorification."
The post drew heavy criticism from the White House and led ABC to suspend Moran. An ABC News spokesperson said in a statement to USA TODAY on June 8, "ABC News stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others. The post does not reflect the views of ABC News and violated our standards − as a result, Terry Moran has been suspended pending further evaluation."
