And the layoffs begin -- a source tells us the first person to be let go from the Chronicle in their 25% reduction-in-staff campaign is managing editor Robert "Rosey" Rosenthal. We got the news confirmed by Friend of SFist and Chron Blogging/Interactive Editor Eve Batey, who says:

As some of you may already know, this is a period of growth for us here at SFist. SFist is a labor of love for everyone on our staff -- but as we've grown, so has Gothamist's need for a dedicated, full-time editor for the site. We're thrilled to announce that long-time SFist sports editor Jon Shurkin will be taking on this role, making him SFist's first official "employee." In fact, some of you have already noted some of the changes Jon's putting in place on the site, and we're very excited to see what else he has up his sleeve.
