Tim Davie ‘spot on’ with decision to stop calling presenters ‘talent’, Isabel Webster claims
BBC Director-General Tim Davie has been mocked for his “ridiculous” decision to no longer call his high-profile presenters “talent”, citing “abuse of power” as one of the key factors for the move.
Discussing the change on Radio 4’s Today programme, Davie claimed that no-one at the corporation is “indispensable”, and follows a review which concluded that they must ensure “everyone at the BBC conducts themselves in line”.
