Another Channel Seven staffer dumped in the wake of ongoing bloodbath at the network

Another star Channel Seven employee has resigned amid the ongoing bloodbath at the network.

The latest person to leave the channel is content director Frances Sheen, who was editor-in-chief at 7News.com.au.

She will be replaced by Natalie Wolfe, who was the 2019 Young Journalist of the Year, the Daily Telegraph.

Channel Seven CEO Anthony De Ceglie said in a statement: “Natalie is one of the most promising young leaders in journalism in Australia.

‘Ms Wolfe will take over editorial charge of 7NEWS.com.au.’

The news comes just days after another staffer announced his departure from the network’s Brisbane newsroom amid the network’s recent staffing crisis.

According to the newspaper, Seven News chief reporter Steve Hart is one of the latest to leave the highly rated network. Courier post.

According to the outlet, an internal email to staff on Tuesday reportedly stated that “family reasons” were the reason for the TV veteran’s decision to quit.

Hart moves to WIN News in Wollongong.

The reporter’s wife reportedly lives in Sydney and Hart’s weekly commute played a major role in his decision to leave the network.

Hart has been with Seven Network for two years and previously worked at 10 News and FOX Sports.

Ny Breaking Australia has reached out to Seven for comment.

He is the latest Channel Seven Brisbane star to leave, following the shock departure of Shane Webcke from the sports desk last week.

In a statement, the Brisbane presenter said he will step down from his role in January but will remain with Seven for NRL Insights.

According to the newspaper, Webcke had recently held talks with Seven’s management to reduce his working hours so he could spend more time on his family business. Courier post.

“After 18 years of covering sports for 7NEWS Brisbane, I have decided to move in a new direction and will be stepping down from my newsroom role from January,” he said.

‘I’ve been thinking about it for a while. It gives me more flexibility and more time to focus on my family’s farming interests.

‘But I won’t be going far. I’ll still be appearing regularly on 7NEWS, along with my good mate Gilly, to provide rugby league insights for our viewers.

“I have been treated so well over the past 18 years and I am grateful to Seven for helping me through this next phase.”

The former rugby league player played his football career with the Brisbane Broncos, where he represented Queensland 21 times at the State of Origin.

In 2006 he retired from the sport and became a Sunday to Thursday sports presenter on Seven News in Brisbane, a role he will continue in until January.

Webcke is one of many Seven employees who have had their duties reduced or been laid off as a result of cost-cutting measures the network has implemented in recent months.

Seven West Media has cut 150 editorial staff in a series of job cuts involving big names including Queenslanders newsreader Sharyn Ghidella and veteran weatherman Paul Burt.

Seven Network’s recently appointed news and current affairs director Anthony De Ceglie has replaced section leaders with younger managers across the country.

He also introduced a comedy spot on Friday nights and astrology in the news.

Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide all have new news directors and new executive producers have been appointed for Sunrise, Weekend Sunrise and Spotlight.

The network has also fired veterans Robert Ovadia, Andrew Frampton and seasoned Melbourne crime reporter Cameron Baud, known among friends as the ‘Harvester of Sorrow’ for his gritty news reporting.

In Sydney, Ovadia, perhaps the highest-profile of all the figures sacked prior to Ghidella’s dismissal, has announced that he will take Seven to the Fair Work Commission for unfair dismissal.
