Talksport presenter and Liverpool fan Colin Murray has quit his job at the radio station after it was bought by infamous British newspaper, The Sun.
The Irishman tweeted out a statement to announce his resignation this afternoon.
He said: “I have resigned from my morning show on talkSPORT, due to a change of ownership, with the Wireless Group being bought by News Corp.
“While there are parts of News Corp that aren’t a problem, it is the inevitable future working relationship between talkSPORT and The Sun that has made my position unsustainable.
“Commercially, I delivered all time record ratings and, creatively, I was left alone to mould a show of which I was intensely proud.
“I had been offered a new contract until 2019.”
Murray, who thanked his colleagues and co-presenters, signed off the statement with “#JFT96”.
