Rogers Sports & Media announced a company-wide reduction that will eliminate roughly 230 positions across TV, radio and corporate functions and includes the closure of six radio stations in multiple cities. Union leaders and local stakeholders framed the cuts as another severe blow to already-fragile local news ecosystems, raising concerns about expanding “news deserts” and reduced local coverage. The announcement comes amid broader corporate moves and regulatory discussions about support for journalism; affected workers are being offered voluntary departure packages while communities and unions press for government action to shore up local news provision.
