Campaigners leading a charge to keep BBC Radio Foyle in Derry from being affected by proposed cuts have said the immediate response to the news has been "uplifting".
The 'Save Radio Foyle Campaign', which includes figures such as former People Before Profit MLA Eamonn McCann, has said the proposals are " a slap in the face for Derry and wider North West".
In November, BBC Northern Ireland announced that eight news staff at the station are at risk of redundancy and output, including the Breakfast Show as well as local news bulletins, would be cut in an effort to save £2.3m and put more money into online services.
