from the link provided by hawk -
"Telstra is an enormous corporation. They've just posted a record $1.6 billion half-year profit,"
I'm sure someone can put a positive spin on this.............

That is very sad for the staff who are losing their jobs.
However, Sensis really has had 'its day' technology wise, people can do their own searches (e.g. city search) etc, without using Sensis.

Negative spin - it is now reported as being 800 jobs lost... outsourcing 800 jobs to the Phillipines.
