Privately-funded online news site The Global Mail has made its overseas correspondents redundant and axed staff in its Australian office, according to reports.
A story in The Australian claims a source said the company had let four local staff go on Friday.
The overseas correspondents, based in New York, the Middle East and Latin America, were informed three weeks ago their roles would cease to exist according to the Middle East correspondent Jess Hill, who announced her redundancy on Twitter today.

At the time it launched, CEO Jane Nicholls said: “We know we are incredibly lucky to be funded purely...
