Process

The papers report that a former BBC Arabic journalist has been awarded £10, 500 for injury to feelings (plus interest) in an employment tribunal brought against one of his managers and the BBC.  The sum is just above the lowest advised band of payout. 

It's not the only interaction between the journalist and the BBC - if anyone doubts that the BBC is hidebound by its employment policies, look at this list of quasi-judicial disciplinaries and counter-grievances between the two parties over the years.
