Robert's been a producer for BBC Channel Islands for a few years now - I believe he got his start at Channel Television.
The Jersey Government has had more than its fair share of local media presenters in the last few years as politicians. Russell Labey, the previous long-term presenter of Spotlight, Peter Mac and Murray Norton, local radio presenters, to name a few. There are also a number of ex presenters in high up Communications roles. it's always seemed a bit bizarre to me that local media journalists/presenters are so eager to get into government, as there's surely all kind of issues, especially in such a small community, with politicians and journalists being too friendly.
