Internet news site WSJ.com intends to lay off some of its staff as part of a restructuring plan to reduce costs amid the Net advertising slowdown, parent company Dow Jones confirmed Thursday.

A representative for the publishing behemoth said there will be a "limited amount" of positions cut in some areas of Dow Jones, including at WSJ.com, which has about 250 employees. The representative declined to give further details except to say the company intends to provide more information when it releases first-quarter earnings, slated for April 12.
