The BBC Annual Report is out later today, but, as ever, there have been briefings to newspapers as to exactly how brilliant executives have been in reducing 'talent' pay.
I would beg to point out that this disclosure only covers 'talent' who get their some or all of their pay cheques directly from the BBC, and not its commercial subsidiary, BBC Studios, or the independent production companies that are largely vehicles for single entertainers.
Thus it doesn't include Graham Norton, Danny Dyer, Alex Jones, Tess Daly, Michael McIntyre and many more. The list has become an uncomfortable spotlight on continuing high salaries at Radio 2 (The Terry Wogan Legacy) and BBC News. By the way, while we're tracking transparency, anyone seen the updated register of external events ? Not yet available....
