'Worst day in history of BBC'

Julia Day and Jason Deans
Monday March 21, 2005

Brutal cuts involving the loss of 2,050 jobs - more than 400 in the newsroom - were unveiled at the BBC today, with unions branding the day the 'worst in the history' of the corporation.

The extent of BBC director general Mark Thompson's job cuts were unveiled today with severe cuts in TV and radio news and current affairs.

The unions immediately condemned the cuts describing today as "the worst day in the history of the BBC". In total, up to 6,000 staff will go as part of the cost-cutting, but Mr Thompson today revealed detailed plans for the news and nations and regions division, which will bear the brunt of cuts.
