https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8708463/BBC-Breakfast-host-Naga-Munchetty-caught-moonlighting-SECOND-time.html How much do you think the BBC should be paying her?

[pastafreak]

Are you criticising just Naga...or her co workers who've also taken on other work?

[Theblip]

What criticism? Just a simple question requiring a simple answer

[andy-hughes]

Well obviously she should be paid whatever she asks for, she is a goddess hun hman form!

Seriously - it is a clear conflict of interest and I am pleased that the new DG is cracking down.

I have no issue with anyone making as much money as they can for as long as they can - I would never say "She is paid this much so she shouldn;t be earning on the side. My attitude is, you have a limited shelf life in your chosen career, make the money while you can.

But that does not mean you can make money anywhere and everywhere.

As has been advised, clear conflicts of interest could arise from the choice of employer Ms Munchetty has made, and if she wants to remain as a credible BBC journalist, her impartiality has to be clearly visible.

I am all for the new DG getting the ship steering the right way - and shedding the masses of pointless bureauocrats will be an excellent start.

The TV series W1A made a fabulous job of creating nonsensical job titles - less amusing when you read that the BBC does it for real!!

3 fag ends and a current.

Any particular reason you misspelled her name?

[maggiebee]

I was going to ask the same - nagger has a different meaning where I come from. To DS, what kind of current do you mean? AC or DC?

I thought she had been OK this week
* but does nag if they let her

// Any particular reason you misspelled her name?//

the lovely Beeb fluffettes get a cobb on every now and then = and try to nail interviewees to wherever
and the effect is to whine and nag
hence nagger
but she has been quiet this week - and behaving like a young lady

she doesn't appear to have broken any rules, but the BBC is free to change its rules if it wishes.

Any such change will I trust affect white males as well; they've been doing it for years, as even the Mail has pointed out.
