I don't want Maryam's head to roll or anything but this just confirms my view of her. She is an ok broadcaster but not up to the standard of BBC World, or what it used to be. I can't imagine David Jessel, Martine Dennis or Nisha Pillai doing this. Because these people did not come to work to fool around, which is what Maryam seems to be doing, with her little stunts at the end of the bulletins etc. She wanted that viral moment and now she sure got one.
At the same time, it is a reflection of where BBC News is right now. A place where no one seems to care that much anymore and where anything goes.
How - objectively - do you know that "she wanted that viral moment"?
Go on... how?
And while you're occupying the inside of her head, perhaps you could give us other profound insights like whether she likes sugar in her tea or not.
Reactions like this are why on-air people often end up hating being in the public eye. Reactionary tosh devoid of any intellectual merit.
