Al Jazeera Media Network, which has already closed it U.S. operations, announced today that it would cut 500 jobs as the media company continues to fall apart.
“Over the past few months, we have carefully evaluated every option available to the Network in order to ensure that we are best positioned in light of the large scale changes underway in the global media landscape,” said Mostefa Souag, the acting director general of the Network.
“Based on this review, we have embarked on a workforce optimisation initiative that will allow us to evolve our business operation in order to maintain a leading position and continue our recognised commitment to high quality, independent and hard-hitting journalism around the world.”
