    Dismissal of News Lancet team and other staff

    i-CABLE dismissed at least 40 journalists, editors and production employees in December 2020, including the entire team of the award-winning investigative programme News Lancet. Management said the cuts were intended to save resources. The Hong Kong Journalists' Association questioned whether the restructuring could reduce reporting on sensitive issues, citing the programme's coverage of police and government authorities in 2019.
