First Rosie ... now TMZ has learned at least 15 people got the chop at the Oprah Winfrey Network today ... including 2 high level execs.
Sources connected to OWN tell us ... people from at least 3 departments were let go ... including the creative services dept., integrated marketing and promo scheduling.
We're told one of the casualties was the head of the creative services department.
One source tells us the group included people with years of experience in the industry as well as newcomers.
The timing is interesting ... considering O just cancelled Rosie O'Donnell's show. OWN has been struggling with low ratings since its launch.
One source tells us, "It's like a ghost town over there."
Calls to OWN have not been returned.
