It's not like Christian Fraser is going to go on air with a tank-top and flip-flops. Rather, I think it's just a statement of where current trends are: hybrid working, a more relaxed approach to office etiquette, and generally being a bit less stuffy.Split screen with Christian in shorts and flip flops, and Lyse in a ball gown. Someone make it happen
Plus, if we're now going to be having TV lighting installed in the Newsroom, it's going to get quite hot in there...
Seriously though, I do think there is something about seeing journalists present stories which don't appear to made up to the nines. The article rather gave me an impression that Lyse Doucet had been reporting from a war-zone in a ball-gown and this marked some great change; it isn't.
