A most unfortunate Tweet overnight, about the Radio Academy Awards now called the Arias, previously known as the Sonys. It came from the BBC News Press Team, later explained, but not very graciously.
And *of course* congratulations to 5 Live! We don’t officially ‘PR’ them from this account so the tweet below isn’t a snub or an omission, but of course we’re proud of all the BBC family! https://t.co/9esF3F2sVh

So the obvious questions - how many separate PR Twitter accounts does the BBC run ? Why did the BBC Press Office, presumably patrolling the waterfront, not pick up on a significant 'radio' win ? Why is the win not mentioned by the BBC Radio 5 Live account (last tweeting 11 hours ago) ? How many people does the BBC pay to do all this in such an uncoordinated way ?
