Ugly Betty is leaving LA for New York.

Following the trend of productions leaving Hell-Ay, Ugly Betty's producers decided to move the show because of new tax legislation passed in New York State and NYC that makes it cheaper to produce the show there.

150 LA-based employees will lose their jobs.

The high-profile move puts additional pressure on Gov. Schwarzenegger to increase incentives for productions to stay in California.
