MySpace shuts Australian office
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 17 May 2011
MySpace will shut its Australian office this week, with some key execs among those leaving the company. Once the social networking firm’s biggest base outside of the US, some thirty people were still working for MySpace in Australia in January.
Among those to go are Rebekah Horne, the firm’s Senior VP of International, who divided her time between the US and Australia. As much previously reported, the flagging MySpace has been offloading staff for a while now as current owners News Corp try to offload the company.
Insiders say the loss of the Australian office should not affect the experience of those still using MySpace in Australia.
