Formation of new outlet wil carry on spirit of old journal

Reporters on strike from Sisa Journal, one of the major weekly news magazines in Korea, declared yesterday that they were separating from the company. The announcement comes a year after the reporters went on strike against the company’s decision to eliminate an article without the prior-agreement of the journalists who had written it. The journalists, meanwhile, have reportedly decided to set up a their own weekly publication.
