BBC journalist suspended over social media comment


You may recall:


Well, Guido Fawkes now has an update...


We've been here several times before. 

Of course in the long run it doesn't always work out too badly for the BBC journalist in question. 

You may also recall Jasmine Lawrence, the BBC News Channel editor who tweeted about UKIP being a party that "stands up for white, middle class, middle aged men w sexist/racist views" and got taken off taken off election duty by the BBC (in 2014) as a result. A few months ago she was promoted to Deputy News Editor at the BBC News Channel.

So, chin up, Danny. In a year or two's time you might actually be running BBC Look North.
