International Business Times UK went eight days without a new story being uploaded on its website after almost its entire UK news team – about a dozen journalists – was made redundant last month.

The website, owned by Newsweek Media Group, appears to be sustaining itself with a handful of stories uploaded from news agencies and the occasional “staff reporter” byline.

Three new stories with Associated Press bylines were uploaded to the IB Times UK website’s homepage after Press Gazette approached NMG for comment for this story on Friday last week.
