Re: Australian journalists to strike against Australasian job cuts

Brief update: The NZ Herald is reporting that

"Wearing t-shirts reading "Fair Go Fairfax" and "Don't Discount Journalism", about 80 Fairfax journalists picketed the offices at Pyrmont in central Sydney.

Additional security surrounded the building, a move some picketers jokingly dubbed Fairfax's "ring of steel"."

Also:

"Earlier today, prominent columnist Mike Carlton was sacked after refusing to cross the picket line to write his weekly column for the Herald's Saturday edition."
