News Ltd., the Australian arm of News Corp. (NWS), is set to cut up to 400 editorial jobs as it restructures its largely print-based publishing business to ensure survival in a digital future, the Age newspaper reported Monday, without saying where it got the figure.

The newspaper, owned by News Ltd.'s competitor Fairfax Media Ltd. (FXJ.AU), cited "insiders" as saying that a "significant announcement" about cuts was expected next Monday.

A spokesman for News Ltd. was unable to be reached for comment. News Corp. is the owner of this newswire.
