Five female presenters 'cut adrift'
Daily Express
|June 22, 2023
FIVE female newsreaders are being paid to stay at home while BBC bosses parachute in freelance presenters to give their rolling news channel "more diversity".
The on-screen futures of Martine Croxall, Karin Giannone, Geeta Guru-Murthy, Kasia Madera and Annita McVeigh have been hanging in the balance since they were overlooked for anchor roles on relaunched BBC News in March.
The BBC continues to pay the five - all aged over 45 - full salaries but has needed to cover hosting gaps.
