Journalistic reverse
NZPA-Reuter London The publisher, Rupert Murdoch, averted yesterday the threat of a rebellion by journalists on his best-selling tabloid, “The Sun.” “Sun” journalists said they had decided to accept a 10 per cent annual pay rise from Mr Murdoch and would take no action on a decision earlier this week to stop working at his high-tech-nology plant in Wapping,
east London, which took over production of his four titles in January. "The Sun” journalists, who had voted by 94-80 to stop working at the plant, voted 143-3 yesterday to accept the offer. They had been complaining about working conditions at the plant, the site of daily picketing and frequent violent clashes between the police and trade unionists for five months.
