Sky Sports News Restructures, Axes Presenters and Show

Sky Sports News has announced a major restructuring that will make several well-known reporters and presenters redundant, with the company emphasizing that this is not a cost-cutting measure but an adaptation to changing audience habits across TV, digital, and social platforms. Staff at the London headquarters were reportedly shocked by the news, and a consultation period for those affected is now underway. The redundancies follow earlier cuts in 2023, which included the departures of Martin Tyler, Geoff Shreeves, and Bianca Westwood. In addition, the popular sports panel show 'A League Of Their Own' will conclude after its upcoming season. Despite the changes, Sky Sports News will continue its 24/7 operation and focus on breaking news. The restructuring aims to make the channel more agile and creative while limiting job losses to a small number of on-air roles.
