Samir Shah is the Chuck Schumer of the BBC

Alot of BBC figures are now questioning the role of Shah, who is meant to lead the board and guide discussion. They blame him for allowing a vacuum that was ruthlessly exploited by the BBC’s opponents. Some describe him as weak and “not in charge of his board”. “There was a deafening silence and it got worse as the week went on,” said one figure. Another said Turness was blocked from commenting “by the chair”. A third said: “The Trump escalation could have been avoided if the board had listened and got ahead of it”

Insiders say the truth is damning. They say figures within BBC News, including Turness, wanted to be far more proactive in responding. As early as Tuesday, there was talk of apologising over the Trump edit in order to clear the way for a robust defence against Prescott’s broader allegations of institutional bias. Several sources said Shah blocked this, opting to wait until the board could come to a collective view in its response to parliament’s culture, media and sport committee, whose Conservative chair, Caroline Dinenage, had been expressing criticism over the alleged failings included in Prescott’s letter.

Gibb has been a hugely controversial figure among BBC staff for some time. He and Prescott have previously been reported to be friends - something they have not denied. All of that contributes to a sense among critics that instead of Gibb reaching a dispassionate view of Prescott’s report, the two men are instead allies in the same cause.

Ylellä on analyysi #BBC:n tilanteesta viime viikon kohun myötä.

yle.fi/a/74-20193024

Siihen nähden, että keskiössä kohussa on #puolueellisuus ja yhtiöstä tehty raportti, on kuitenkin erikoista, ettei analyysissä mainita, että raportin tekijä oli politiikan toimittajana oikeistolaisessa The Sunday Timesissa, eikä suhdettaan Toryihin.

Kuvakaappaus osasta toottiin linkatusta The Guardianin jutusta. Lukee: Who is Michael Prescott? Prescott is a former journalist who went on to become a corporate adviser. His roles included 10 years as chief political correspondent and then political editor of the Sunday Times, and eight years as corporate affairs director for BT. He holds a role at Hanover Communications and used to be an adviser to the BBC committee overseeing editorial guidelines and standards. Sources have told the Guardian that Robbie Gibb – who served as director of communications to Theresa May in Downing Street between 2017 and 2019 – was instrumental in the appointment of Prescott as an adviser to the BBC’s editorial guidelines and standards committee. The pair are reported to be friends. Concerns have previously been raised about the role of Gibb, who joined the BBC board when Boris Johnson was in Downing Street.
