I think the priorities displayed by BBC News today have demonstrated a continued downward trend. It's actually beyond embarrassing.

Other channels are leading with:

[*]G7 Summit
[*]Arab League Summit to which Syria have been invited for first time in years
[*]Ukraine and Sudan wars
[*]Italian floods
[*]Greek Asylum seekers arriving in boats dragged back out to sea


Yet the BBC's international news channel leads with a bloke leaving a daytime TV programme.

I can only presume that the running order was decided by the Editorial team playing a game of 'spin the bottle'.

And a presenter on "the other side" (as it was known when it was the only other side.   Has he done anything for the Beeb since he came out of the broom cupboard?

Winning Lines and Test the Nation come to mind.
