More than 125 employees were laid off at the São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Brasilia offices
CNN Brasil announced on Thursday 1st that it had fired several professionals at its offices in São Paulo, Brasilia and Rio de Janeiro. In total, there were 125 layoffs and about 100 of these employees were hired as legal entities. The reason for the wave of layoffs of, mainly, journalists and presenters, would not only be an alleged cost cut, but also “the strengthening of the channel’s DNA”, as indicated in the email sent to insiders, disseminated by Splash, by UOL .
Among the names in the list of dismissals from the news, there are great personalities of CNN, such as, for example, Glória Vanique, Sidney Rezende, Monalisa Perrone, BórisCasoy, Marcela Rahal, Leandro Karnal, Kenzô Machida and Isabella Faria.
In addition, journalists and commentators Danúbia Braga, Bruna Ostermann, Jairo Nascimento, Fernando Molica and Alexandre Borges also took part in the closure. Along with them, TV director João Beltrão also entered the list of sackings. This is because the Rio station headquarters will cease to exist.
In this sense, the four remaining reporters will work from home.
In Brasilia, most of the layoffs occurred in the administrative sector. However, names such as Anthony Wells, who is responsible for covering the World Cup, have also entered the list of sackings.
