Italian news agency journalists on strike

Journalists at Italy's ANSA news agency have called a five-day strike in protest at management talk of job cuts. The walkout began yesterday afternoon, as Italy's local election polls closed, and is scheduled to last until Friday morning. A statement from ANSA's union representatives said the journalists were "upset, disappointed and worried" about televised remarks by management that there might be a 15% cut in editorial staff.
