EXCLUSIVE: Senior BBC journalists have called on their bosses to rethink the UK broadcaster’s new-found enthusiasm for TikTok after the Chinese social media giant spied on reporters. Deadline…
BBC News was initially reluctant to jump on the TikTok bandwagon but eventually joined its 1BN active users, launching an account last March amid a rush of interest in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
BBC News said this week that it was recruiting four journalists to create a TikTok team within the corporation’s social news unit. “Growing the BBC News TikTok account to make it the biggest and best, both globally and in the UK, is one of News’ main priorities for 2023,” the job ad said. “Some have got themselves into trouble for posting stuff with the BBC brand in the background,” the insider said. “There isn’t enough nuance and safety around what they are posting.” The BBC declined to comment on this issue.
Randall Lane, the chief content officer of Forbes, said it was a “direct assault” on U.S. press freedoms. Matthew Garrahan, the news editor at the Financial Times, described the incident as “outrageous”.
