Challenges in the Ovato decision to use News Corp to deliver magazines

I see challenges for newsagents in the decision by Ovato to use News Corp to ship magazines as News Corp. does not have an ideal track record for on time and retailer retailer friendly delivery.

Also, there are reports elsewhere of a move to contract drivers. Some see this as a move away from respecting the award for fair pay and moving to a business to business model that results in under aware payment for the same service.

I get that Ovato has to cut costs. I suspect there will be consequences for newsagents.
