And it just keeps going. Adelaide reporter Josh Money has also been axed.
Fox Sports is currently trending on Twitter in Australia behind COVID-19.
Producer Andrew Peake is also gone.
This is absolute bullshit
Christen Jantzen, Adam Hawse & Josh Garlepp gone as well.
Daniel Garb currently trending #1 in Australia at the moment.
Includes a letter to staff from Fox Sports boss Peter Campbell.
Christian Jantzen is very unlucky.
Bloody hell, they’re losing some top class reporters here. Very sad time for all at FSN.
The quality went downhill when sky news took over
Wonder if Adam Hawse will land back at 10, he’s quite good.
Not that Fox give a shit about optics, but dumping a bunch of people when a world crisis is going on is such an asshole move, especially when they say it isn’t at all related to The Rona.
