Three news women among those laid off at Rogers
Three of Toronto's best-known women
broadcasters are among the 94 people laid off by Rogers Media this week. Left,
Barb DiGiulio is a veteran of 22 years with Rogers. Her inside reporting for the
Fan 590 earned her the station's nickname Barb Wired. Also getting a pink slip
was 680 News entertainment reporter Gloria Martin (centre) and news reporter Ann
Doose (right). Things must be tough at the Rogers broadcast shops. In May,
Rogers made similar cuts, laying off more than 60 workers across its media
operations and shutting down its 24-hour breaking news station CityNews Channel
in Toronto. Recently, Rogers announced a digital all-you-can-read subscription
service called Next Issue Canada that allows subscribers to pay a monthly fee
for access to new and old issues of its magazines. (Courtesy South Bayview Bulldog)
