The BBC cancelled live broadcasting overnight "to save money" and at the same time pay that no talent Claudia Winkleman £5000,000?<br /><br />The "gender gap" uproar is just a smokescreen, they want us to be more upset that poor autocue reader Bruce isn't being paid as some bloke, rather than throwing public money about. As for "you have to pay this money to get quality" there are thousands of highly talented people out there who would gladly work for nothing like this sort of cash.A Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13379711904663323903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-69752761477612963742017-07-19T12:32:45.135+01:002017-07-19T12:32:45.135+01:00That's a brilliant banner at the top of the Ma...That's a brilliant banner at the top of the Mail front page, a tribute to Spinal Tap's Nigel Tufnel surely. On being asked about criticism of an album cover (Smell the Glove)for being sexist (featuring a scantily clad woman on a dog leash) Nigel asks 'what's wrong with being sexy?'.

In Australia we are (thankfully) inundated with fantastic BBC programs mainly on the public broadcasters, the ABC and SBS. But Rupert Murdoch's piss poor Oz cable network Foxtel regularly pinches BBC programs from the ABC by paying over the odds for them.<br /><br />Even worse, and this is surely something that happens in the UK: Oz media outlets like those owned by Murdoch have no problem screeching about public broadcasters like the BBC & ABC but simply love the fact that said public broadcasters have a fine history of expertly nurturing and training staff for years on end (at public expenses) which they then poach for their private media organisations.<br />The Devil is always in the Detail but that isn't the Mail's forte. http://www.thesocialshuttle.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/08385625594884495221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-62199336294099490542017-07-19T11:17:05.218+01:002017-07-19T11:17:05.218+01:00One third of the women on the list are women accor...One third of the women on the list are women according to the BBC breakfast programme this morning.
