Foxtel’s Flash cuts editorial staff as struggling streaming service changes tack
Foxtel’s Flash has cut its editorial team as the service continues to struggle to find an audience, with paid subscriber figures last reported in November at 15,000, 18 months after its launch.
Flash launched in the second half of 2021, becoming the third brand in Foxtel’s streaming stable, which is increasingly becoming more central to the company’s strategy. Now, it has said it will be led by its technology and operations team, rather than its editorial team.

Shouldn’t that headline be ‘changes tack’ as in changing direction, not ‘changes tact’, as in polite behaviour?
It should indeed – an error on our part. Thanks for the pick up Mr Grumpy
