Staff at Nine Entertainment passed a motion of no-confidence in chief executive Mike Sneesby on Friday afternoon and are preparing to take industrial action, after Sneesby announced that 200 jobs would be cut from the company.

Sneesby told staff he is cutting 200 jobs due to the “economic headwinds” facing the media, with up to 90 positions to go on legacy mastheads the Sydney Morning Herald, the Age and the Australian Financial Review.
