DMG axes 3 from Melbourne newsroom

DMG Radio have this afternoon halved the staff in their Melbourne newsroom, making three journalists redundant, including one of the last remaining members of the Nova 100 launch team, News Director Nikole Gunn.

Gunn, who was with DMG for 12 years, and journalists James Lake and Bree Roberts (right) will leave the company this week following the restructure.

Whilst most bulletins will remain Melbourne-based, it is believed that DMG will now be networking some of their on-air news bulletins from the Sydney newsroom.

It is understood that weekend news will be networked completely from Sydney.
