Earlier Tu'i Uata began his tenure by moving two of the TBC's most experienced journalists out of the newsroom and into the marketing department.
Both journalists had had run-ins this year with prime minister 'Akilisi Pohiva who called the TBC an enemy of government because of its critical coverage.
However Dr Uata told Kaniva News that change had to occur as the TBC faced being shut down within two months because it was running at a loss.
He blamed the situation on the way the news was created saying the problem was the content was not popular.
