Thats it? Thats all we get? On one of the blackest days in the BBC's history, the blog dedicated to the internal workings of the BBC doesn't have a single editorial comment? No explanation or apology.

Instead of Newsnight asking his opinion should they not be asking what he knows?

Grade needs to be investigsated in rhe public interest.
