Postmedia, the ailing Canadian newspaper publisher, is eradicating its parliamentary bureau. Five are being made redundant and five more are being reassigned to the politics and public service desk of the Ottawa Citizen.
Its editor, Andrew Potter, told the Hill Times that consolidating Postmedia's national political coverage made "strategic sense". The move coincides with the announcement of a voluntary redundancy package for Citizen staff.
