Erin Molan breaks silence after abrupt axing from Sky and 2DayFM ...

Erin Molan has broken her silence after being axed from Sky News Australia this week. The presenter, who hosted a weekly current affairs program, finished up with the network on Friday and her final show has already been to air.

Erin's axing from Sky comes just a few months after she finished up with 2DayFM, where she hosted the breakfast show alongside Dave Hughes and Ed Kavalee.

It's meant so so much to me, so thank you, my mind is seriously blown."

She continued, "You've seen the news by now, clearly, that I finished up with Sky. I loved every second of my time with Sky, my show there became my purpose, my passion, and aside from my little girl, basically my entire existence, which is very sad, I know. And yes, I need to get out more."

Erin then shared that while she is "done" with Sky now, she is "just getting started".

"So, I'm sorry to those who had hoped otherwise," she said, jokingly adding, "I'm somewhat surprisingly much harder to kill off than you think."

She added that her problem is that she cares "too much" about people, and "about the world, about a peaceful existence for every single child, about the safety of women everywhere".

Erin revealed she's received job offers from other networks, saying it would be nice to have "fewer death threats, more stability, a simpler life", however, she cares too much about the bigger causes like the Israel-Gaza conflict.

"I won't ever accept what the world is dishing up right now, and nor should you," she said. "I will never bury my head in the sand, because that is not how I was raised."

She finished by telling her followers to "watch this space".

"We’ll be watching you Erin," another said. "There are so many people around the world who are so inspired by you! You’ve given others the courage to speak up for themselves because you had the courage to stand up for what’s right, no matter the consequence. Truth and moral clarity always wins in the end."

"You go, SUPER WOMAN! You are a very limited edition journalist," a third wrote. "And for me - MY FAVOURITE OF ALL! So happy to see that fire in your eyes"

According to Daily Mail, Erin was "caught off-guard" by the axing, but Sky News Australia claims they ended things on an amicable note. It's believed Erin didn't attend the station's Christmas party this week.

Erin's radio show with Dave and Ed was cancelled in August. In a joint statement, they said: "We've loved our time together on 2DayFM Breakfast, however, due to some of our families living in different cities we are unable to commit to 2025. So with a heavy heart we are moving aside so 2DayFM can find the team to take them forward in Breakfast.

"We are so grateful to Sydney for their support, and to double the number of listeners in three years is something we are immensely proud of, and we will miss each and every one of them."
