The owner of mX and this masthead, News Corp Australia, yesterday said up to 30 full-time journalist jobs would be affected, although the company was aiming to redeploy as many reporters as possible. There would be some redundancies. The exact number was not known.
A spokesman said: “News confirms the closure of mX in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. The decision is a reflection of the changing reading habits of commuters who now turn to their mobile phones and tablets on their way to and from work.”

Distributed at major train stations, the free afternoon paper began in Melbourne in 2001 then expanded to Sydney and Brisbane. The final edition of mX will be published on June 12.
“News will continue to invest in our extensive suite of print and digital products, which are purchased and read by millions of Australians every day,” the spokesman said.
