Fairfax, the largest news media company has just announced it will lay off 20 per cent of its editorial staff. That's literally thousands of journalists that are about to find themselves without work in Australia.
While I'm sure most people here won't care, for those who are interested in journalism, it's a sad sign of the times. The room for quality journalism is getting ever thinner.
It also means that a few years worth of young Australian journalists coming through university now are going to have a hell of a hard time finding work.
