Sunday Tele: Ros Reines down; Glenn Milne out and new staff in, as News Ltd also shakes up Queensland operation
Sydney’s Sunday Telegraph has unveiled a series of changes to its staff and columns, including downgrading gossip columnist Ros Reines, confirming the departure of columnist Glenn Milne and new staff appointments.
Reines’ long standing double page spread on the inside back of the Sydney newspaper has been reduced to a single page moved further into the paper.
However, she has also been given an occasional video role on news.com.au.
Reines (pictured above) – previously subtitled by the newspaper “Sydney’s hottest gossip columnist”, has been relabelled “The columnist they can’t silence”. Her lead story today is a prediction that radio star Jackie O is pregnant.
I think you’ll find VEXNEWS broke the story, Crikey’s ongoing commitment to cutting and pasting the stories of others without attribution is a bit sad really.
A ‘prediction’ that Jackie o is pregnant ? Maybe Ros Reines had a clairvoyant column in the works.
Can’t stand Milne or Reines…
Prepare for the great News Ltd train wreck.They’re going to put the Curious Snail and other products behind Rupert’s paywal and .. and .. and … then go hunting for someone to blame at Holt Street when it doesn’t work. This is going to be fun to watch, you bet.
Just get thee behind a pay wall you Murdoch horrors.
Ross Reines – terribly sorry but I can’t stand the woman. If she had it her way, anyone living in the Eastern suburbs with a nose job would be a celebrity.
Did Jonathon – or as he is now known, J Mo really cover Reines’ column “successfully”? It was dullest reading I have come across in a long time. As for Reines herself, she is far too eastern suburbs-centric and snooty for her own good.
Adding attribution to cut and paste? Novel idea!
Successful? The only engaging thing about J Mo’s efforts was wondering whether he knew anything at all about some of the people he wrote about. I soon gave that up, along with the reading.
