A reorganisation of the Wall Street Journal’s editorial and production operations will lead to around 50 jobs being lost, editor Robert Thomson has said in a memo.
The paper’s editing and production for print, online and mobile will be centralised around its New York ‘hub’, with editorial operations at its South Brunswick offices to cease.
