BBC Today programme faces existential threat from digital shift

BBC News has ordered correspondents to prioritise social media platforms over traditional radio, and the Today programme's hosting roster is shrinking.

• BBC News directed correspondents to prioritise platforms such as TikTok and Instagram over traditional TV and radio franchises, including the Today programme.
• Radio 4's The World Tonight is being discontinued entirely as part of the cuts.
• The Today programme's hosting roster will fall from five to four after Amol Rajan's departure, leaving Nick Robinson, Justin Webb, Emma Barnett and Anna Foster.
• Mishal Husain has left the BBC for a role at Bloomberg.
