Rogers Sports and Media has cut a “few dozen” jobs in its audio business amid what it describes as an unpredictable advertising market that has led to declining revenue.

“We recognize and thank the team members who are leaving us for their dedication to our listeners and advertisers.”The company said there would be no closures as part of the move, as all radio stations, programming and podcasts would continue to run. In October 2023, Rogers closed its CityNews Ottawa radio station, formerly known as 1310NEWS, and laid off newsroom staff, citing dwindling audiences and regulatory challenges. The company said fewer than 10 employees were affected and the outlet would maintain an online presence supported by two digital reporters.
