The one-time leading morning program has struggled since launching its all female lineup in January
Embattled Today Show hosts Georgie Gardner and Deborah Knight could lose even more viewers to the ABC as the public broadcaster launches a new-look breakfast panel.
The Today Show's viewership has been steadily decreasing since Karl Stefanovic's unceremonious axing six months ago, while ABC News Breakfast has continued to gain traction.
