This is not really news: Fuji had announced the discontinuation of its cine
film stocks last fall. The link you that is being cited here,
http://www.fujifilm.com/news/n130402.html, is just  the confirmation update
that the announcement has come true.

At this point, Velvia is not affected because its not a cine film stock but
a photo camera film. (Regardless the fact that 3rd party manufacturers cut
it for Super 8.) It is not sure though whether Velvia is still being
manufactured or whether Fuji just sells old stock.
