Bloomberg TV cuts production staff

Merrill Knox of TVNewser is reporting that Bloomberg Television has cut some of its staff.

Knox writes, “Bloomberg Television has eliminated less than five positions in its New York bureau. In a statement to TVNewser, a Bloomberg spokesperson said the network has ‘reassigned some production roles as we continue to expand our digital video operation.’

“The network’s transition to digital began last year. The positions eliminated this morning, some of which were held by camera operators, will not affect the company’s net head count. The layoffs will be offset by plans to hire up to five digital video producers.”
