Backstage: "Believe it or not, jobs in film, television and other media were relatively safe in 2010, but the same can't be said for jobs at movie theaters and theme parks.
Last year, media employers announced that 4,889 people were laid off, a 78% improvement over the year earlier when those companies eliminated 22,346 jobs.
But in the entertainment/leisure category, which includes hotel and travel along with theme parks and movie theaters, 23,390 people were let go. That's 53% more than the 15,280 jobs lost in 2009.
