CRI news veteran Fergus Thompson walks away from the microphone

China Media News has nothing but good things to say about Fergus Thompson, a man from Ireland who has worked for over four years as a news presenter on China Radio International. Fergus can often be heard reading the news at 7am, prior to People in the Know and Yuzhou and Felix's popular morning show.

Fergus has been a solid employee at the station, helping coach younger staff with news-writing and English pronunciations. He is dependable and reliable with an excellent demeanor. Unfortunately for CRI, Fergus will be leaving the station in January. He's the latest foreign staff member to be leaving the station following new rules governing foreign staff, which were announced last month.

China Media News wishes Fergus well in his future endeavors.
