TL;DR Summary

Austria's Wiener Zeitung, one of the world's oldest newspapers still in print, will primarily move online from July 1, while maintaining a minimum of ten print publications per year, depending on the funds available. The newspaper's role as official gazette, its main source of revenue, will move to a separate state-owned online platform. The Wiener Zeitung will establish a media hub, a content agency, and a training centre for journalists. Almost half of the newspaper's over 200 employees, including 40 journalists, could be laid off, according to its trade union.
