What's one job in 450 ?
In the old days, integration was the watchword in BBC News - last century, attempting to join 'news' and 'current affairs' (never really achieved), then bi-media (you're kidding, aren't you ?), then mixing online teams up with linear news treams - today being unpicked. Head of News Output, firm-jawed Gavin Allen, has surrendered control of UK and World Online, Social Media and Digital Video to the new Great Dane, Digital Director, Naja Nielsen.
Naja previously only owned Digital Development. Now she has 'News' responsibility, she apparently needs the support of a Digital News Editor, a new role for which presumably some of the anxious 450 facing redundancy will apply. Maybe they should have held on to Nick Sutton, formerly styled as Executive News Editor, Digital, now Head of Digital Output at Sky News.
