ABC News and the ABC stations group were impacted by layoffs Wednesday.
The Hollywood Reporter said about 75 staffers at ABC News and at ABC’s owned local TV stations will be let go. No programming will be impacted, and no entire teams will be eliminated, but the company is making the changes to be “sustainable, efficient and future-forward,” said THR.
The move was reportedly part of an ongoing round of restructuring at Disney.
“As we look to the future and refining a team that is not only capable of excellence in reporting and delivering the highest quality content but is also streamlined and sustainable, we must occasionally make some tough decisions,” said ABC stations chief Chad Matthews told staff in a note.
