"Ariel" has a report on James Harding's speech here.

"The 'unsettling and wearying' cost-cutting would go on, admitted Harding, as DQF continued its march, with more 'substantial' savings to be announced later next year.

'We will have to look not only at efficiency savings, but cutting the scope of what we do,' he admitted. That includes not doing some things."

That includes not doing some things.

What do you think that BBC News is doing now, that it should no longer be doing?

Readers, please add your thoughts here.
