here's my take as far as the bbc go. the expose on savile wasn't too bad, but should have had more substance, though a lot of the victims tell of the same story and describe how it happened in a similar way, it could/should have had more depth. the 2nd program where an innocent man was charged was ludicrous, i think some heads should roll but not all the heads. i don't think what happened at the beeb is the same as the news of the world fiasco. it happened decades ago. i do think the new boss wasn't up to par and he should have been. but the beeb is taking a much bigger hit than it should.
savile if found guilty is the nasty bastard in all this. people who turned a blind eye may also hold some guilt. but to run the beeb into the ground because of airing or not airing a show is again ludicrous. newsnight has done similar things in the past. but witch hunting the beeb wasn't the flavour of the month.
you mentioned in an earlier post about victims coming out of the woodwork. and to an extent you were proven correct. that said it really was terrible pitchfork journalism. while the guy may have been a victim, proper journalistic protocols were not carried out, they're the people who shouldn't be allowed to simply resign, they should be sacked.
there are definitely innocent workers who will lose their jobs over this and wrongly so.
