On Friday, the staff of the problem paper was informed of the decision, says employees of the Culture News.
Ending todayThe Metro newspaper - which currently consists of a website and a printed, mailbox distributed weekend magazine - will be closed down. Employees at the magazine tell Kulturnewsna that production will be stopped already today, but the decision will not be made public until Monday.
The decision means that the entire remaining news editorial and sales department will lose their jobs. At the editorial board there are about ten people.
Not unexpected- It's not entirely unexpected given the past year, but we thought it would take a little longer, until the next reconstruction in October, says a staff member of the Culture News.
The employee continues:
- Some cried. For 24 years the magazine has been around, now it is no longer there. It's boring of course.
The siblings fashion Metro fashion and Metro jobs will continue their business.
