The fuss about BBC salaries is entirely and malevolently confected by Murdoch and Dacre. A pox on them. The BBC is worth every penny.

Happy BBC salary day. I blame my agent and the other TV channels that pay more. Now where did I put my tin helmet?

Jeremy Vine (£700k+) is on his BBC radio show arguing *against* a caller who says his high BBC salary is justified, which is very BBC.
