eNCA reporter Nickolaus Bauer isn't leaving the TV news channel - but eNCA says his 'employment relationship has changed'.


The eNCA (DStv 403) reporter Nickolaus Bauer isn't leaving the South African TV news channel, eNCA tells TVwithThinus.

It comes after rumours started circulating in the biz that Nickolaus Bauer has resigned from eNCA.

Journalists and producers at e.tv and eNCA are especially on edge given the ongoing exodus of talent before and behind the scenes at eNews and eNCA the past few months, and acrimonious labour issues at e.tv's Hyde Park headquarters in Johannesburg where staffers are fearful about losing their jobs.

The rumour mill started buzzing that Nickolaus Bauer is the next to jettison eNCA, but e.tv says that is not true.

"Nickolaus Bauer is still very much a part of the eNCA reporter team. His employment relationship with eNCA however has changed given that he requested more time to spend on his studies," e.tv says in response to a media enquiry.

"Viewers will continue to see regular reports from Nickolaus Bauer".
