The Swedish public broadcaster SVT Riksnyheterna has announced a merger of its sports and photo groups, resulting in the elimination of approximately 40 journalism positions, multiple reports indicate. The restructuring is expected to affect roles across both departments, though specific positions have not been disclosed. It remains unclear when the merger will take effect or whether any new roles will be created.
The broadcaster has not publicly detailed the reasons for the reorganization or how it will impact coverage of sports and photography.
