BBC Editors visit

The BBC brought some of their London editors to the Assembly for a visit yesterday. I commend them for having done that , and I had a couple of useful chats with people such as the 1.00 and 6.00 news editor about coverage. I am glad that the BBC's College of Journalism will shortly be circulating a DVD about common gaffes made by BBC network news programmes in their coverage of the UK in the post-devolution world.

However, I noticed that quite a few of those from London seemed to be more interested in chatting to other London people about things they could presumably have been chatting about in London, such as the UK Labour leadership....
