TORONTO – Four new international news bureaus, slated to open this summer, were announced by Global National today.
National foreign bureaus will be based in London, Beijing, New Delhi and Jerusalem.
"Canadians recognize that events on the other side of the globe can have a profound impact on their lives," said Troy Reeb, vice-president of Global News, in a press release. "In a time when many other news organizations are scaling back, Global National is doing the opposite by expanding our news division and adding these bureaus."
Each foreign news bureau will be staffed by a team of Canadian journalists with expertise in each region. The new news teams, says the release, strengthens Global National’s positioning of "News Understood".
