Channel Seven star Mark Ferguson set to disappear from screens during Paris Olympics - after the network informed staff they would be losing their jobs


Channel Seven star Mark Ferguson is said to be stepping away from the news desk during the Paris Olympics, following job cuts at the network.

In addition to young up-and-comers, Seven is also said to be filling Mark's seat with a rota of TV veterans, including Michael Usher, Angela Cox, Angie Asimus and Edwina Bartholomew. It is expected only 38 jobs across television news and current affairs crews nationally are set to be cut and that 'Brisbane favourites' at the network will likely avoid the latest wave of redundancies.
