The broadcaster aims to adapt to the changing demands of its audience

Staff have reportedly been left shocked by the news – the latest in a string of cuts made by Sky Sports News.

According to the Daily Mail, insiders have insisted the redundancies are not a cost-cutting measure.

Instead, the broadcaster is aiming to become “more agile and better equipped to serve audiences”.

Sky are understood to be keen to ensure their departments keep up with changing behaviours of audiences.

But the broadcaster will continue to prioritise breaking news content.

It is believed well-established reporters and presenters will be included in the cuts.

A Sky Sports News spokesperson told the Mail: “We’ve shared proposals with the Sky Sports News team to change how we’re structured, aimed at making us more agile and better equipped to serve audiences across TV, digital and social.

“A small number of roles are impacted, and we are now entering a period of consultation with those colleagues.”
