Angelo Frangopoulos

Angelo wants to build on the new-found stability to grow the channel’s audience of Britain’s first new rolling TV news broadcaster in over three decades. Angelos reflects on the “teaching moments” from those rocky first few months. He faces down those who sought to ‘cancel’ the channel before it was even launched by organising an advertising boycott, and shares with pride the evidence that those attempts failed – including the creation of 200 new journalist jobs. He also sets out plans to make GB News “distinctive” including “serving all communities across the UK”, unlike the other “London-centric” broadcasters.

Angelos Frangopoulos is a visionary media leader known for his transformative contributions to journalism and broadcasting. Beginning his career in Australia, he rose to prominence as CEO of Sky News Australia, where he expanded the network’s reach and influence, pioneering a model for round-the-clock news in the country. Driven by a passion for delivering quality journalism, Frangopoulos empowered teams to tell stories with integrity, building a trusted news source that connected Australians to the world.

His journey took an ambitious turn when he took on the role of CEO at GB News in the UK, a role that positioned him as a groundbreaking leader committed to broadening the media landscape. Under his leadership, GB News set out to challenge traditional broadcasting norms by championing voices from across Britain, focusing on regions and stories often overlooked by mainstream media. He has championed the growth of diverse journalism, creating hundreds of jobs and nurturing talent from various backgrounds, all while withstanding early opposition and skepticism. His resilience and unwavering belief in the power of inclusive media have shaped GB News into a channel that resonates deeply with viewers who seek fair, balanced, and relatable news.

Frangopoulos’s leadership story is one of tenacity and boldness, inspiring a new era of journalism that connects people, fosters trust, and celebrates diversity. Through his work, he continues to leave a profound impact on the broadcasting world, encouraging future media leaders to embrace a vision that prioritizes authentic, community-driven storytelling.
