Former staff and media experts express dismay and anger as Emily Maitlis says corporation bosses have shown ‘they don’t really care’
Cuts to the BBC’s flagship evening news programme Newsnight have been described as “a bad decision” that reveals a “loss of confidence” at the corporation.
Newsnight staff past and present have reacted with dismay and anger at the axing of half of the programme’s staff by BBC, which will see the programme cut to 30 minutes and its headcount slashed from 57 to 23.
