BBC News and BBC World to merge

[harshy]

Appreciate the BBC's hands are tied, but it is going to lose a lot of good people because of this - both established names and rising stars.

When you add up the impact of voluntary redundancy exercises, poachings by Global and departures due to moving teams outside of London the losses of staff BBC News over the past few years are huge.

I think it’s a huge mistake bbc world news has been going since the early 90s, for it to disappear along with the now established presenters is purely insane.
