bite naga munchetty herself. so it is a more complex and nuanced situation and some of the people who have reacted to the headlines in the newspapers and other and elsewhere have appreciated. what puzzle some viewers as well if that's naga munchetty physically said in the clip was that she specifically wasn't accusing anyone of anything. out of the ecu come to the conclusion that somehow her comments crossed a line and it seems to be accusing trump? she said that at the outset but, unfortunately, toward the end of the discussion, she eventually ventured into speculating about what president trump's motors what might have been in making the comment that he made. there is no doubt that the committee made is racist, to say to anybody from a minority ethnic community or from an immigrant community that they should go back to where they came from is just ignorant prejudice and is racism. and she was right to identify it as such. so there is no doubt that the comment was racist, but that she went on to say together wit

breakfast presenter naga munchetty has been found by the corporation's executive complaints unit to have breached bbc guidelines in comments she made on air injuly. they were part of a conversation initiated by co—presenter dan walker after president trump had told four democratic congresswomen to go back to the places from which they came. i tell you... it is, it is the president. that was the most telling quote for me last night. i can't remember who said, but she said she had been told to go home times, to go back to where she came from. she is being told by the man sitting in the oval office. every time i have been told, as he woman of colour, to go back to where i came from, that was embedded in racism. now, i'm not accusing anyone of anything here, but you know what certain phrases mean. you still hear that quite regularly? not regularly, but i've been told every so often. you are sitting here not giving an opinion, but how do you feel as someone who has been told that before... furious, absolutely furious. i can imagine that lots of people in this country will be feeling absolut

few days with naga munchetty, a big climb downm the last few days with naga munchetty, a big climb down. it is, and ina munchetty, a big climb down. it is, and in a lot of ways a welcome one. a lot of people feel it should never have happened in the way it did. what we have seen as part of the guardian's story here, part of the reason you might say, you might read into this, for this climb—down is the guardian actually release, found some of the text of the complaint that was made. it was originally stated by the bbc's editorial standards chief david jordan that dan walker, naga munchetty's a co—presenter, was not part of the complaint, was not named in this complaint, was not named in this complaint and that is why it was naga munchetty censured. it transpired, dan walker was mentioned but only naga munchetty was censured, and so i think that there isa censured, and so i think that there is a real problem here with how this has been dealt with and i think what is heartening to come out of this is seeing so many high—profile journalists and broadcasters of colour come out in suppo

munchetty was absolutely actually says in theirjudgment that naga munchetty was a racism, y actually says in theirjudgment that naga munchetty was a racism, we can who have experienced racism, we can talk about those experiences but to remain impartial about whether they we re remain impartial about whether they were good or not. it's an absurd thing to say. the bbc's point is naga munchetty could give her lived experience, she is presented to the audience and then stop it there, allowing the audience to draw their own conclusions. by suggesting if we share our experiences of racism, which by the way is a deeply uncomfortable thing to do. the last thing you come on air to do is talk about the painful experiences of racism you've had in this country. i've been in the same position, when trying to hold debates about current affairs and do myjob i drawing into sharing my personal experience has come of them by others who pulled me into that. i don't think it is something any of us do lightly or often enthusiastically. to then be invited to share that experience but to refrain from casti

the daily mail's lead story reports controversy over the bbc‘s ruling that brea kfast‘s naga munchetty breached its editorial guidelines when discussing a tweet by president trump. this and the guardian front cover has the same story. the newspaper reports of a "staff revolt and growing anger" over the way the issue has been handled by the bbc. the paper also reveals the return of political satire tv show, spitting image. thatis that is the picture at the bottom. in the sun today, not content with being the number one most downloaded artist anywhere, ensuring his taking up artist anywhere, ensuring his taking up painting. they are pretty good. --ed up painting. they are pretty good. ——ed sheeran. it is jackson pollock inspired. there he is in his studio. what has he got on his feet?! they look like... they look like a couple of cats. not on his feet. a little kitten with its tail in the air. i hope has been microchipped!m kitten with its tail in the air. i hope has been microchipped! it is when people put supermarket carry bags over their shoes to protect it. as an offering those s

senior bbc figure said what donald trump said was racist, it was fine for naga munchetty to give her own personal take on the racism that she has experienced that is incredibly similar to these four us congress robin. it was because you can't ascribe a motive to anybody, —— congress women. you cannot definitively say that that person is a racist and it is not for the bbc staff to have opinions on everything, that is how we retain public trust, that was the argument. should there be resignations? will this story move forward without that? it is pretty shameless, the sort of covering of each other‘s'... people saying that actually it was a complaint when both apply to both presenters, we ignored it, and then it came on again for naga munchetty and that is why we took it seriously. the postmortem is quite grizzly at this rate. settling as tony hall is saying, these are finally balanced judgements but there is a blunt approach that has meant that this has been far too in elegantly handled. that is far 22 in—house trash going on — far to do much. final headline, but he is no lon

yes, this is naga munchetty, the popular pvc breakfast presenter who was talking about president trumpet she said she was absently furious about his language after he said that three or four us congresswomen should go home despite being the usa. and the bbc is getting big back—ups on this, they had a report into this despite only getting one complaint and have censured naga munchetty. we are seeing a u—turn tonight and we see the director general and he's but a statement saying they could put you back her and admired her. what she was doing when talking about racism in this country, that's obviously very difficult to talk about something that was very personal and i think there's been a lot of figures like there's been a lot of figures like the chancellor saying it's ridiculous the decision they have made, andl ridiculous the decision they have made, and i think it's quite good at tonight we seen them pulling away. made, and i think it's quite good at tonight we seen them pulling awaylj have not seen anybody defend it so far. i've seen a few bbc tweets, but that's it. i think people

dan walker then pressed his co—presenter, naga munchetty, for her opinions on the story. every time i have been told as a woman of colour to go back to where i came from, that was embedded in racism. now, i'm not accusing anyone of anything here, but you know what certain phrases mean. that was deemed fine, but the next exchange caused an issue. i know that you are sitting here not giving an opinion but how do you feel, then, as somebody who has been told that before, when you hear that? furious. when you hear it from him? absolutely furious, and i can't imagine that lots of people in this absolutely furious, and i can imagine that lots of people in this country will be feeling absolutely furious that the man in that position feels it is ok to skirt the lines with using language like that. does that then...? do you feel that his use of that...? that is the point i was trying to make — it then legitimises other people to use it. yes. as our guest was saying, it feels like a thought—out strategy to strengthen his position. it is not enough to do it just to get attention

naga munchetty has now been reprimanded for those comments. the bbc‘s executive complaints unit says she was allowed to say the words were racist, but not comment about donald trump. describing a remark as a racist is not the issue at stake here, the issue at stake is whether it was a right to go on to ascribe motive, in this case, to president trump. it could have been to anyone else. it suggests we are impartial on racism. i mean, the bbc isn't impartial on crime. if a crime happens, we call people a criminal. what we have to be impartial on is the reasons why those remarks are made. and there was speculation in the programme, which she made, amongst others, about the nature and the reasons of why those comments were made. and we can't do that, whether it's president trump or whether it's anybody else that we are assessing in that way. but many disagree. a number of bbc journalists have signed a letter, backed by prominent writers, actors and broadcasters, saying the decision must be overturned. it is ludicrous to say it's fine for a prese

it came off the back of one complaints, after naga munchetty's comments. an hour dozens of very prominent figures have come out in support of her, including lenny henry and adrian lister. and a lot of bbcjournalists are also very angry about this. it doesn't seem to be going away, it seems to be getting bigger. and a lot of the general public as well, very concerned about the fact that she was simply talking about her own experiences and saying how a lot of the things that were shouted at her that were clearly racist echoed the comments that donald trump had made to three serving congresswomen in the us. the bbc has been taken aback by the massive backlash to this west wimmera hundreds of people signing letters planning, people working in this building complaining about has been going on ——to this with hundreds of people. people are saying we admire naga munchetty and that she is a brilliantjournalist and that she is admired by the corporation. they have not withdrawn the complaint that was made of out her. they have not withdrawn that editorial findin

and that naga munchetty hadn't done anything wrong. so it's a complete reversal of the bbc‘s strongly entrenched position from last week. many people out there, who of course have been very vocal about this, and will be very pleased at the decision that the bbc has finally made. but will also be asking the question, should the bbc have taken so long to get to the point where they think they should have been, when the decision was originally made. i was interested towards the end of e—mail, which lord hall sent every member of staff you're the bbc, he said he would also be looking at some of the processes and procedures around how the bbc assesses these issues. yes, he said specifically he has asked the editorial and leadership teams to discuss how we manage late exchanges on air around these kinds of topics in the future. and saying impartiality is fundamental to bbc journalism. so what he seems to be saying there is, he's not blaming the executive complaints unit for reaching the decision that they did under the rules that the bbc

munchetty. the bbc says the original complaint also included the breakfast presenter dan walker. but by the time it had been escalated to a higher level within the corporation, the complainant took issue only with naga munchetty. she is not facing any disciplinary action. a year since the murder of the journalist jamal khashoggi in a saudi consulate in istanbul, the saudi leader crown prince mohammed bin salman has accepted responsibility for the killing. but he says he did not order it or know about it at the time. no one has yet been convicted for the murder. a united nations investigation team has gained access to covert recordings of the killing. bbc panorama's jane corbin has the story. this is the saudi consulate in istanbul. in october last year, jamal khashoggi walked inside and was never seen again. we only know that jamal khashoggi was murdered, and the brutal way in which it was done, because the saudi consulate was bugged by turkish intelligence. un human rights expert, agnes callama
