So this it to save money at the Sad BBC


[BBC Two's Newsnight is to be cut back
and have its format overhauled as part
of a plan to save money in the corporation's
news department.

The long-running show will lose its dedicated
reporters, be shortened by 10 minutes and drop
its investigative films to focus
on studio-based debates.
Meanwhile, the BBC News at One TV bulletin
will be extended to an hour and will be broadcast
from Salford.

The BBC also said it would put more money
into digital journalism.

BBC News and Current Affairs CEO Deborah Turness
said the broadcaster was "in a tough financial climate",
and had to make "some difficult choices"
as audiences switch from TV to online news.

The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) said
the Newsnight cuts represented "a major blow
to investigative news".]
