In more media news, one of the most senior editors at the BBC has resigned from her position as China editor, accusing the BBC of being “secretive and illegal” and breaking pay equity laws by paying men more than women. Carrie Gracie has worked at the BBC for 30 years. In an open letter to the BBC’s license fee payers, Gracie wrote, “The BBC belongs to you, the licence fee payer. I believe you have a right to know that it is breaking equality law and resisting pressure for a fair and transparent pay structure.”
