Well, questions have been asked and eyebrows have been raised about the amount of money that this channel receives in grants, particularly as it has a major private shareholder and fairly low viewing figures.

I'm not sure if they are cutting back in general or just in the UK- it may be felt that the referendum result signals to them that we aren't interested in European news.

If this is the case, it's a short sighted move if they are hoping to persuade us to stay in some form or another
