eMedia's eNCA (DStv 403) has once again changed its anchor line-up with Andrew Barnes and Aviwe Mtila now fronting primetime on the South African TV news channel since 6 October.
e.tv and eNCA didn't give a heads-up to media about the anchor changes or issue a press release but the latest anchor shuffle comes after John Bailey's exit as eNCA managing editor, which also went unannounced.
It's not known who the new eNCA managing editor is and it's unclear why eNCA once again moved news readers to different timeslots.
Since Monday, the SA Morning strand, which is also shown free-to-air on e.tv, on eNCA is now anchored by Masego Rahlaga and Dan Moyane between 06:00 and 09:00.
This is followed by Newslink between 9:00 and 12:00, anchored by Naledi Moleo.
All Angels between 12:00 and 14:00 has Gareth Edwards as anchor, with Jenna-Leigh Bilong as the face of Today in the afternoon block between 14:00 and 17:00.
Andrew Barnes has been moved to the evenings as the new face of eNCA primetime between 17:00 and 20:00 of SA Tonight, followed by Aviwe Mtila as the anchor of Newsnight between 20:00 and 23:00.
