**Approximately 75 staffers at ABC News and at ABC’s owned local TV stations will be let go** as part of an ongoing round of restructuring at parent-company Disney. *The Hollywood Reporter* has learned, split about evenly between the national news organization and the station group. No programming will be impacted, and no entire teams will be eliminated, but the company is making the changes to be “sustainable, efficient and future-forward,” per someone familiar with the decision.

ABC News president **Almin Karamehmedovic** and ABC stations chief **Chad Matthews** announced the restructuring in memos to their teams.

“As you know, this has been happening across the broader company and the industry at large in recent weeks and months,” Karamehmedovic wrote. “For us, it means shaping a team that embraces the new media landscape and evolves along with it, which we must do to continue serving our viewers.

“As we look to the future and refining a team that is not only capable of excellence in reporting and delivering the highest quality content but is also streamlined and sustainable, we must occasionally make some tough decisions,” he wrote. “Unfortunately, today is one of those days.”
