Microsoft Announce Job Losses

World Business Report

Available for over a year

Microsoft announces it's cutting up to 18,000 jobs, with the majority of them going from handset maker Nokia. We ask what this says about the direction Microsoft is taking. Plus as Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott repeals the country's carbon tax, we discuss what the repercussions could be. We get the latest witness and expert reaction to the Malaysian Airlines plane MH17 which has crashed over Ukraine. And a writers union in the US gives its reaction to the potential takeover of Time Warner amid concerns about media consolidation. (Image: Getty)
