Staff to meet Irish Daily Star Sunday management about redundancy terms

JOURNALISTS at the Irish Daily Star Sunday will meet management today to discuss redundancy terms after the shock announcement that the newspaper is to close.

The last edition will appear this Sunday after the decision was made to axe the title to curb growing losses.

Staff were only told of the closure when they were summoned to a meeting yesterday morning and were stunned at the announcement as they had taken over new offices just weeks earlier.
