Sangita Myska Unlikely To Return To LBC After Being “Disappeared,” Sparking Listener Revolt


Sangita Myska is unlikely to be restored to radio station LBC after being taken off air in opaque circumstances, sparking a revolt among listeners.

Three sources said Global bosses had cited Myska’s falling hourly audience as motivation for the refresh, despite the presenter growing her reach by 12.5% to 465,000 in the most recent round of listening figures. He tweeted: “A few weeks ago I was so moved by Sangita Myska talking about the racism tolerated by the Tory Party, and how it made her and people she knows feel, that I had to stop the car to listen and weep. Myska has won plaudits for calling out racism, including against Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and for calmy handling a caller who told her to “shut up” because she wasn’t born in the UK.
