The decision to axe the Friday night edition of 730 comes two years after the public broadcaster replaced state-based editions of the show with one national edition amid cost cuts.
Grant is a well-known news host and commentator having worked for news outlets including CNN, Sky News and The Guardian Australia where he was appointed Indigenous affairs editor just a year ago.
