Sky News anchor suspended for breaching virus restrictions with birthday party
LONDON โ British broadcaster Sky News has taken one of its leading news anchors off the air for six months after she threw a birthday party that violated coronavirus restrictions. Under current restrictions in the British capital, people from different households can't meet indoors. Two reporters who attended the gathering, political editor Beth Rigby and correspondent Inzaman Rashid, will be off-air for three months, Sky News said. Burley, who has been a presenter on Sky News since the channelโs debut in 1989, said she had agreed โto step back from my broadcasting role for a period of reflection. The fact is I was wrong, I made a big mistake, and I am sorry.โ
