News Corp Australia has declined to comment on reports that it may downsize its regional newspaper staff as part of a push to reduce costs. Sources have claimed that more than 100 regional journalist and editors were asked to attend an unscheduled video meeting on Tuesday afternoon which was hosted by national community masthead network editor John McGourty. He is said to have told them that jobs may be cut and some mastheads could be merged, but stressed that these are only proposals at this stage. News Corporation recently revealed plans to cut five per cent of its global workforce.
