Yes, moving to Network full-time is a promotion, but is it really when Ben Brown, Jane Hill and others presented probably just as many network bulletins as NC slots? All that happened was those NC slots dried up for obvious reasons, so they're full-time Network by default. This is all semantics anyway, I guess. My point was they weren't pure News Channel presenters like Martine and Annita.Before her 'incident' on The Papers and subsequent suspension last autumn, Martine was also a semi-regular presenter on BBC 1, doing the 1 and weekend bulletins after Simon McCoy's departure.
