A second Newstalk presenter is set to leave the show, just days after Chris Donoghue’s departure.

His former co-star Sarah McInerney is set to leave the station too.

The presenter will leave her role in December, The Times reports.

Following a recent shake-up, she and Chris Donoghue lost their Drivetime show.

Chris was then promoted to political editor of the radio group, while Sarah was moved to Saturday morning show, Between the Lines.
