Interesting and noted

Ofcom's Group Director of Content and Media Policy Kevin Bakhurst was out and about patrolling social media last night - presumably part of a one-man campaign to reduce online harm. 


Some organs have suggested that Kevin might be a candidate to replace Fran Unsworth at the top of BBC News. Fran's salary last year was £340k+; Kevin's basic was £246k, rising to £301k if you include benefits and pension allowance. Who has the easier job ? Would Kevin want to risk failure, from a job judging journalism, to a job doing journalism ?
