From Guido Fawkes...
(Wonder if there's a recording of it?)
It was only last year that the BBC gave Jonathan Dimbleby a rare telling-off for committing "a serious breach of the Editorial Guidelines" after plugging his own charity on Today.
Is another such telling-off on the cards?
P.S. As Sue reminds me, the Any Questions presenter doesn't seem particularly impressed by those (rare) BBC Trust rulings against the likes of him.
The media demigod syndrome is alive and well - people like the Dimblebys and Yentob must feel near immortal and immune to criticism. Who else in this day and age can expect their career to span 5 decades with the same organisation?
ReplyDeleteMind you, the syndrome seems to have infected Paul Staines as well in recent months.
