Guess this inquiry might explain why the 5 dumped UK presenters weren't immediately made redundant.Does it though? You can equally argue that they picked names from World News to make the international audience less alienated with the significant increase in domestic news. Or, you know, that when looking for senior news presenters with experience of broadcasting internationally and good knowledge of foreign affairs, they opted to go for a set of senior news presenters with experience of broadcasting internationally and good knowledge of foreign affairs.
Also, of the five 'dumped' presenters, three of them were either wholly or primarily World News presenters. I have no idea why some people are so intent on turning everything into some sort of conspiracy against the News channel. I mean, of the what eight NC presenters at the start of the year, one quit, one moved back to radio, four got fully promoted to network and two have been off screen but still employed. It's hardly been a cull.
