Emma Barnett is dropping her occasional days presenting Newsnight, with 'other projects in the pipeline'. She'll continue with Woman's Hour, and her new show on Bloomberg, Emma Barnett Meets, where she's already interviewed Ai Wei Wei, Al Sharpton, Helle Thorning-Schmidt and Elif Shafak.
A new editor for Newsnight, to replace Esme Wren, has yet to be announced.
Meanwhile, the BBC is advertising for more journalists to work on BBC World News; odd workforce planning, considering the numbers of well-qualified staff they let go in the past 18 months.
