Qatar broadcaster Al Jazeera to cut 500 jobs | The National:
"The Qatar-based news broadcaster Al Jazeera says it is slashing around 500 jobs as part of a worldwide workforce reduction.
The network announced the cuts Sunday, saying they are part of a “workforce optimisation initiative" linked to changes in the media landscape. It says most of the cuts will be in its home base of Qatar.
Acting director general Mostefa Souag says the cuts will allow the Al Jazeera Media Network to evolve, to “maintain a leading position and continue our recognised commitment to high quality, independent and hard-hitting journalism around the world.""
