What is this about:
The chairman of the BBC Trust, Lord Patten, says the broadcaster needs a 'radical structural overhaul'. Speaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show, he said George Entwistle's replacement will be appointed within weeks rather than months and revealed that he will discuss the future of Newsnight with the acting director general before the end of the day
What do I think?
Well, to be honest I dont know much about Newsnight. I find the story not very interesting. However, I think that Newsnight doesnt have m uch of a 'future' since they messed up big time with this Jimmy Savile case.

What is this about?
Pressure on Lord Patten over BBC DG 'handover' offer rebuff and Pressure mounted on Lord Patten today after it emerged that offers from the BBC's two most senior leaders to help George Entwistle find his feet were rebuffed.
What do I think?
Very similar to my first thought. They must of thought that they wouldnt get caught and now they have been very embarrassed and shamed in front of the nation about this Jimmy Savile case. This makes the BBC look bad also

What is this about?
Lord Pattern refuses to step down as he sees it as too 'radical'. This links in with the video from the first one, but this one is an article, so the views are the same.
