Title: "TikToK" Then "Today"?
Post by Administrator on Jun 27^th, 2026, 12:29pm

"The Guardian" reports that there are changes to BBC correspondent's priorities, here.

"The task of briefing the nation on Radio 4’s agenda-setting Today programme has been one of the most urgent tasks facing the BBC’s top journalists for decades.

Insiders at the corporation, however, say that duty has effectively been downgraded, after an edict that will result in correspondents prioritising making content for TikTok, Instagram and other digital platforms."
