Why oh why oh why?
I see Alastair Stewart has been "forced" to stop presenting on GBeebies because he's "broken his hip".*

It now seems Guto Harri has been indefinitely taken off air as a presenter

Supporting anti-racists, breach of contract

So he's been cancelled by the news company that opposes cancelling?

I would say they have more presenters than viewers, but with the way they are falling too its a pretty close run thing.

Will the last one to leave please turn the lights off. Andrew Neil is going to return from his summer break to find an empty studio. Is this going to be to news programmes what 'Triangle' was to soaps?

GB News has been plunged into crisis as news of a senior executive’s resignation emerged hours after a presenter was taken off air for symbolically taking the knee on screen, the Guardian has learned.
The rightwing TV channel is contending with other staff considering leaving amid management upheaval, collapsing ratings and plans for a relaunch after Guto Harri was “cancelled” by its viewers.
John McAndrew, the channel’s director of programming, has also quit the station, sources told the Guardian. McAndrew, a well-known figure in the television news industry who has a long track record at mainstream outlets including Sky News and Euronews, was considered to be the channel’s second-in-command and played a key role in convincing many of the more established mainstream presenters to join.
The incident comes amid a growing crisis at the channel, which launched only four-and-a-half weeks ago. Some senior off-air staff are understood to have left in recent days amid ongoing turmoil following the channel’s disastrous launch, which was plagued by technical difficulties.
They include Gill Penlington, a respected and experienced producer at rolling news channels such as CNN and Sky News who has worked in the past with the GB News chairman, Andrew Neil. She was brought in as a senior figure before launch, only to leave earlier this week. The departure of other key off-air figures could be announced imminently, according to sources at the channel.

GB news has already achieved a very worthwhile objective .. causing yet another round of obssesive bed wetting from the totally unrepresentative woke/twitterati while feeding their echo chamber addiction .... [emoji122]

Using all the very best hits of cliched new conservative tropes is a brilliant way to accuse other people of existing within an echo chamber. 
In a nutshell this is why GBnews is failing isn't it? A tiny audience all railing against 'woke' in their little circle jerk, which is then brought crashing down by one of the faithful marching to a slightly different tune. On one solitary occasion. Freedom of speech!!

With nobody watching.
And doing it badly.
If they are talking about anything that matters at all.
You really are delusion personified.
Given the outrage from the right when someone took a knee on GB News are you really in a position to accuse anyone else of being in an "echo chamber"?

I don’t think anybody has really noticed.
Dry your eyes mate. The nation has voted with its feet. You are very much in the minority.
