Australian Community Media (ACM) has announced the closure of four major mastheads in Western Australia's South West, which is expected to lead to job losses.

In a letter to staff, ACM said it had made the "preliminary decision" to shut down the Mandurah Mail, the Augusta-Margaret River Mail, the Bunbury Mail and the Busselton-Dunsborough Mail.
