Liddle moves on from Today programme
大象传媒
News has announced that Rod Liddle is moving on from editing
the Today programme to work on a pilot for a new programme
about politics for 大象传媒 TWO.
He
is also discussing other presenting roles he will take up with the
大象传媒.
Richard
Sambrook, 大象传媒 Director of News, said: "I have been talking
to Rod for several weeks about a new role in 大象传媒 News.
"We
both agreed this is a good time for him to move on from Today.
"Rod
is one of our strongest editors and I have great admiration for
what he has achieved on the programme over the last five years.
Under
his editorship, Today has been extraordinarily successful.
"The
programme has produced a succession of investigative scoops and
listening to the Today programme has increased to its highest levels
ever, with seven million tuning in each week.
"In
addition the programme has sustained its position at the centre
of national political debate and continually demonstrated its impartiality
across all issues."
The
大象传媒 will be advertising for a new editor in the next couple of weeks.
