BBC Salary Controversy
Comments
-
I can understand why people are upset about the amount of money they are being paid, but the BBC need to pay competitively as they will easily get paid 3 times more with ITV, Channel 4 or SKY.
In regards to the pay gap, that definitely needs to be addressed, Chris Evans is not worth that amount of money at all.1 -
Don't respond to this, Chippy, on the grounds that it may incriminate you ;-)hoof_it_up_to_benty said:

They dont pay competitively you end up with;
the bbc is wank what are we paying tv licences for.
They pay somewhat competitively you end up with;
the bbc is wank what are we paying all this money in licence fees so they can pay them that.
it doesnt really bother me, im not a tv presenter or an actor so i cant really comment on how good/bad the pay is.
the constant moaning everytime, something happens and its the current governments fault is becoming v v v v v boring.
maybe ill just stick to the football threads

You don't need to pay such high wages for a job that can be done with little or no training - how the f*** can a newsreader command 500k or somebody 400k to do a mediocre radio chat show. There are loads of people capable of doing these jobs for lower salaries and the programs wouldn't suffer.sterlingaddick said:I can understand why people are upset about the amount of money they are being paid, but the BBC need to pay competitively as they will easily get paid 3 times more with ITV, Channel 4 or SKY.

There may be a handful of presenters whose personality is such that they command an audience but the vast majority are replaceable.
So much b***shit is spoken about their skills.

Look at the uproar when the Football league Show was lunched, most of which was aimed at the presenters. You pay peanuts you get monkeys.0 -

I labelled those terrorist sympathisers who labelled me as the next Hitler, which kind of exposes the daftness of such accusations, two wrongs don't make a right but at least you understand now.Fiiish said:

The alt-right aren't Hitler. For one thing they wish they had one-eighth of his cunning, charisma and leadership3

Don't see the fuss myself and hats of to the short curly haired girl from 1970's Grange Hill who is the highest paid actress.
My only surprise really was the actors/actress levels, I thought they'd be higher. Thought you'd get someone on eastenders or similar on more.2 -
Actually you labelled people who disagreed with you on your ideas for anti-terror legislation as terrorist sympathisers and then told me to go speak to the parents of those killed in the attack because you think they'd agree with your agenda. Not sure you understand anything to be honest.BR7_addick said:

Maybe I did Fish I'm not thread trawling to agree or disagree with you, however I will say I was probably angry at the site of such atrocities at the time which is understandable.Fiiish said:

But let's stick to the thread topic for once eh, and don't be so daft as to label anyone who sees a political talk show host differently as yourself as "alt right" or any other petty shutdown of debate attempt names.3 -
well a lot of people seem to like his show (I dont listen to it)
What was the chat to music ratio when Wogan did it ?0 -
All of them, the figures are from BBC's last financial report and are the totals paid to said individuals in said period - what for is not enumerated.i_b_b_o_r_g said:Jeremy Vine on £700,000 to £750,000 a year? Wtf
Would that be for Eggheads, his BBC2 radio show or his unbelievably bias election presenting?0 -
DING, DING, DING...we have a winner everyone!RedArmySE7 said:I genuinely don't think it's a coincidence that the government announce they're extending the pension age for a load of people at the same time as this.
Whilst everyone and all the front pages are getting their frillies in a twist over which Strictly presenter gets more than the other, our government has released its intent to make 6 million people wait longer for their pension than they thought they would.
There's not even a thread on here relating to it for example and I expect as a demographic plenty on here are effected.
Playing us for mugs...and its worked.5 -
If we're sticking to the thread topic then remind me which BBC channel employs James O'B to justify your and Chippy's whinging about him?BR7_addick said:

I guess it relates to the topic as a comparison to BBC radio.Fiiish said:

mistaken. Do you really think Sky would pay Shearer over a million for his incisive comments?0
