Jobs cuts in media

IN Media Watch Briefs | 06/01/2017

 Restructuring at HT Media and the ABP group is resulting in a substantial loss of media jobs. While the Hindustan Times is pruning editions and is reported to have closed six on Thursday, ABP is going to cut jobs across group publications and TV channels as it reduces pullouts and supplements and eases out employees on post retirement contracts. The outsourcing of the  production of the HT business section to Mint  has also resulted in job cuts and transfers across editions.
