On Tuesday, E! announced the plan on cutting its staff amid the economic hardship brought on by the pandemic. E! has canceled its three New York-based entertainment news programs — E! News, Pop Of The Morning and In The Room. ‘E! News’ has been on air for 29 years. ‘Pop of the Morning’ and ‘In the Room,’ were only seven-months-old.
The news comes one year after E! announced an expansion of its entertainment news programming - moving from the West Coast as an evening news program to New York as a morning show.
E! News network shows "Daily Pop" and "Nightly Pop" will still be filmed and aired out of LA, and E!'s website and social media accounts will still be active.
