Interestingly, tonight’s coverage of the New Hampshire primaries features a panel (as has become something of a feature du jour for Washington hours these days) which includes Katty Kay.
Katty was introduced being credited as "US Special Correspondent for BBC Studios & Host of Influential with Katty Kay", so I suspect we will continue to see more of her for big occasions.
A bit of an odd arrangement, commercially, though. Presumably BBC News pay out of their budget to BBC Studios for the services of their employee, and BBC Studios then pay Katty directly. So, technically, Katty isn’t part of BBC News even though she appears as a quasi-presenter.
