"It’s a kind of mutual decision. Basically, just looking ahead, having been at two start-ups, first with TV-am and then Sky, I think it looks like the direction which Sky News wants to go over the next few years is not one that’s a particularly good fit for me".
Thus Adam Boulton, 62 (Westminster School and Christ Church Oxford) in The Times on his intention to depart from Sky News, where he presents a mid-morning politics show and acts as Editor At Large. In August his network's boss, John Ryley opined "The age of the all-powerful anchor is gone – instead they share the stage with journalists in the field, providing the audience with the high fibre news they demand"
In January, Sky has pledged that one in five of its staff will be from a minority ethnic background by 2025. In April, Sky News reported these staff figures: White 77% Ethnically diverse 10% Prefer not to say / unknown 13%
