There was a rumor going around that most of the US staff was let go but I've found articles from sources that have proved reliable in the past (CNET for example) that say only 12 folks were released and LJ still intended to keep their servers and server support here. All development is moving to Russia.
People have gone into an "OMG LJ is going to disappear" panic every time a major change has occurred. Each time the drama proved unfounded.
Companies are cutting staff because of the economy; it's really that simple.
