EXCLUSIVE: Rupert Murdoch ‘s News UK has placed an unknown number of employees into a consultation process as part of plans to reorganize its studios division after Piers Morgan ‘s departure. Deadline understands that staff have been told that jobs are at risk amid a “rightsizing” initiative at News Studios, the unit that houses YouTube channel Piers Morgan Uncensored and makes video content for brands including The Sun and The Times newspapers. “Owning the brand allows my team and I the freedom to focus exclusively on building Uncensored into a standalone business, editorially and commercially, and in time, widening it from just me and my content.”
