Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large “Entertainment Tonight” is undergoing layoffs with the entertainment news show cutting less than 10% of its staff, Variety has learned.

A staff-wide Zoom was held on Wednesday afternoon where employees learned of a “small restructuring of staff,” sources close to the show tell Variety. “Entertainment Tonight” has rid of much of its digital programming over the past few months, so the layoffs are described as “right-sizing” of staffing needs and “nothing more,” per an individual familiar with the situation.

An exact number of employees cut could not be confirmed, but this individual says the show is not facing a “mass layoff” by any means and still has a large staff.

A spokesperson for “Entertainment Tonight” declined to comment. Some staff members from “Entertainment Tonight” took to social media to share news on Wednesday that they had been laid off.
