Scandal in the BBC: 200 girls abused

The rival network ITV buzzed across the BBC to reveal, through a special broadcast that Savile, presenter logo in the decades of the 70s and 80s  and who died last year, had sexually abused at least 200 girls . The report also showed that some managers were aware of the situation and acted as accomplices to conceal. The flamboyant British Channel CEO, George Entwistle , went to Parliament , where he was  questioned by the Committee on Media and Culture. Is the BBC also declined to further research realized activity Jimmy Savile .

In committee, Entwistle admitted that there was a "culture of tolerance" offenses Saville. "It is a serious matter and we can not look at it any other way than with horror," he added. However, it also charged the program content editor  Newsnight , Peter Rippon, who resigned amid questions about why this cycle canceled a broadcast on the  presenter's pedophile behavior. According to Entwistle, Rippon was the same one who decided not to issue the report without even notifying the channel address, says an article in the Guardian.

Entwistle had to answer about an alleged conversation he had with the director of corporate news, Helen Boaden , on December 2, in which the woman said that the investigation of Newsnight could have a serious impact on planned tributes in honor Savile. The woman had alleged that, if not, they should "modify" the planned schedule for Christmas. According to John Whittingdale, chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Culture, the revelations leave the BBC "very bad off." " The BBC has been badly damaged by this scandal and how he tried to solve in recent weeks, "said the legislator. Even British Prime Minister, David Cameron , interceded. "These are serious questions. Need to be answered," he said. Savile alleged abuses were finally revealed earlier this month of October by a rival chain,ITV , which broadcast the testimonies of five women who reported being sexually assaulted by the presenter when they were minors. This encouraged other alleged victims to speak. Research suggests that the number of young abused could rise to 200 in total. Meanwhile, two companies created on behalf of charities said Savile closed after scandal.The Jimmy Savile Charitable Trust and Jimmy Savile Stoke Mandeville Hospital Trust reported that no longer work.
