Portugal’s union of journalists has lodged a complaint at the Regulatory Authority for the Media about the closure and resurrection of newspapers Sol and i, which lost €4.4 million and €3.8 million last year, respectively.
Around 100 jobs are to go at the two titles, controlled by Angolan businessman and former BES Angola chief Dr Álvaro Sobrinho, who aims to close the businesses and re-employ selected staff to run two new publications called, coincidentally, Sol and i.
