See through

 Amol Rajan (or Omal, as he was called by one BBC correspondent in the field) has a tendency to overshare, and he's done it again this morning, with this list of 'credits' for the Today team.

You'll note Louisa Lewis as 'Interferer'. Never a rota-ed job in my time, but usually the editor or assistant editor who helpfully rings up the night team after the 10pm news bulletin, and asks "Have you thought about doing something about the earthquakes ?"  The same person then rocks up around 0730, and says, "Have you thought about doing something about this line in the Daily Mail ?". 

Amol will argue that this is transparency. Next stage, share the briefs you're given, eh ?
