正准备对其新闻编辑部进行大规模裁员，就在几个月前，它还表示将投资该报，使其成为“英语世界领先的中右翼媒体机构”。
is preparing to make significant job cuts to its newsroom, just months after stating it would invest in the title to make it the "leading centre-right media outlet in the English-speaking world".
据了解，由亿万富翁首席执行官马蒂亚斯·德普夫纳领导的德国媒体集团阿克塞尔·施普林格正在审议一项方案，该方案可能导致50至100名记者被裁减。
Axel Springer, the German media company overseen by its billionaire chief executive, Mathias Döpfner, is understood to be examining proposals that would make between 50 and 100 journalists redundant.
一位熟悉该计划的消息人士称，即将进行的协商很可能建议裁减“相当比例”的编辑人员，可能在圣诞节前进行。
A source familiar with the plans said a forthcoming consultation was likely to propose cutting a "significant proportion" of editorial staff, possibly before Christmas.
该人士表示，此类方案引发了对阿克塞尔·施普林格此前承诺的质疑——即“支持对[电讯媒体集团]的投资计划，以促进业务增长和扩张”。
They said such proposals called into question Axel Springer's promise to "back an investment programme in [the Telegraph Media Group] to grow and expand the business".
电讯媒体集团的一位发言人拒绝置评。目前尚未向员工宣布任何裁员。
A spokesperson for the Telegraph Media Group declined to comment. No redundancies have been announced to staff so far.
此举将标志着阿克塞尔·施普林格自今年早些时候以5.75亿英镑收购电讯报以来的首次重大干预。此次收购结束了电讯报及其员工三年来的艰难时期，在此期间，潜在买家要么被阻挠，要么交易失败，要么遭遇内部强烈反对。
It would mark the first big intervention by Axel Springer since its £575m purchase of the Telegraph earlier this year. The sale ended three tortuous years for the Telegraph and its staff, during which potential owners were blocked, fell through or faced fierce internal opposition.
一些电讯报内部人士对拟议的裁员感到困惑，他们难以理解这如何与德普夫纳“结束这种不确定性”的承诺相吻合。
The proposed cuts have confused some Telegraph figures, who are struggling to understand how it aligns with Döpfner's pledge to "bring that uncertainty to an end".
在阿克塞尔·施普林格最近于伦敦举行的领导层峰会上，德普夫纳也被称曾表示，公司不可能通过裁员实现增长。
At a recent Axel Springer leadership summit held in London, Döpfner is also said to have stated that the company could not cut its way to growth.
阿克塞尔·施普林格还拥有Politico以及德国媒体《 Bild 》和《 世界报 》，最近该公司引入顾问评估电讯报旗下报刊的财务状况，这些报刊包括《 每日电讯报 》、《 周日电讯报 》及其在线新闻业务。
Axel Springer, which also owns Politico and the German titles Bild and Die Welt, recently brought in consultants to examine the financial health of the Telegraph titles, which include the Daily Telegraph, the Sunday Telegraph and its online news operation.
德普夫纳一直不掩饰其提升电讯报美国业务的意愿，已有高级编辑被派往美国以制定相关计划。
Döpfner has made no secret of his desire to boost the Telegraph's US operation with senior editors already deployed to the US to develop those plans.
然而，据了解，顾问们已经起草了对这家拥有171年历史的报刊现有新闻业务的潜在裁减方案。
However, consultants are understood to have drawn up potential cuts to the existing news operation at the 171-year-old titles.
消息人士称，顾问还建议《每日电讯报》设立一些副业来支持其新闻业务，例如价格比较网站和医疗保健服务。一些内部人士表示，他们对其中一些建议感到困惑。
Sources said consultants had also recommended that the Telegraph set up side projects to support its journalism, such as price comparison sites and healthcare. Some insiders were said to be baffled by some of the suggestions.
一位熟悉这些提议的消息人士称，这些建议将激怒《每日电讯报》员工，他们曾希望阿克塞尔·斯普林格的收购能在经历了三年“得不到任何形式的投资、加薪或管理层变动”后迎来“阳光普照”的时刻。
A source familiar with the proposals said they would anger Telegraph staff, who had hoped Axel Springer's ownership would mark the arrival of "sunny uplands" after three years of being "starved of any form of investment, pay rises or management changes that could move us on".
“通往增长的道路不是裁员，”他们说。“如果他们打算在美国推进业务，仍然需要在那里雇佣人员，但员工尚未被告知这笔资金将从何而来。”《每日电讯报媒体集团》最新财报显示，由于与其所有权纠纷相关的法律费用以及资产重估，该集团去年出现了400万英镑的亏损。其收入也从2024年略有下降，降至2.732亿英镑。
"The path to growth is not to cut jobs," they said. "They're still going to need to hire people in the States if they're going to make any sort of push there, but staff haven't been told where that money is going to come from." The Telegraph Media Group's latest accounts showed that it had slumped to a £4m loss last year as a result of legal fees connected to its ownership saga and the revaluing of assets. Its revenue had also fallen slightly from 2024 to £273.2m.
然而，《每日电讯报媒体集团控股公司》的财报也显示，其实际税前营业利润约为4800万英镑。
However, the accounts of Telegraph Media Group Holdings also revealed it had made an underlying pre-tax operating profit of about £48m.
