More interesting news from Bill Rogers's trading as WDR blog:

• The BBC's Group General Counsel, Sarah Jones, who lost to Samira Ahmed and Sir Cliff Richard, earns  £278k p.a.

• Friday's evening newsreader on the BBC News Channel as it reported the Samira Ahmed story was Rachel Schofield - wife of Jeremy Vine.

• The BBC's Director of Sport Barbara Slater set up a “monthly Under-35 advisory group to help focus, evolve and … brainstorm new ideas and improve our working culture”, hence (perhaps) "the cull of 50 year-old+ presenters from Radio 5 Live".
