Hundreds of jobs on line as News Corp shuts print titles


News Corp Australia has announced the bulk of its regional and suburban community papers across the country will go digital-only from June 29, putting hundreds of jobs on the line. Larger regional papers, which includes the Hobart Mercury and NT News, will continue to be published. The Wentworth Courier, Mosman Daily and North Shore Times, which Mr Miller says serve Sydney's "most affluent suburbs", will still be printed. In an email to staff seen by AAP, Mr Miller pointed to the coronavirus' impact on print advertising revenue for the changes. Mr Murphy said the union was still waiting on clarity on how many jobs would go and expected fair treatment for any staff forced to leave.
