The news comes just days after fellow Newstalk presenter Chris Donoghue handed in his notice.

Former Newstalk Drive co-presenters Chris and Sarah were replaced in their slot by Ivan Yates in August.

Ms McInerney was given an 8am hour-long Saturday morning slot while Mr Donoghue was made political editor across all Communicorp stations including Newstalk, Today FM, 98FM and SPIN.

The presenter, who was named News Broadcaster of the Year at the IMRO Awards in October, currently fronts The Sunday Show with Sarah McInerney on TV3.
