BBC News night Article

Summary:
The articles discuss that the politician had taken part in rape and abuse of young boys from the homes as a part of paedophile ring. Steven Messam was one of hundred children, BBC news night only uncovered fraction of the abuse. The criticism was reveal by Iain Overton through twitter “a very senior political figure who is a paedophile” that had created speculations. News night did not name the politician. Messam had reported the abuse to the police but was called a liar. The investigation had be led from the BBC was accused of covering a previous Newsnight investigation that Jimmy Saville abused children.
Opinion:
I believe that George Entwistle was used as a scapegoat as he said that is was wrong to air the Newsnight program and he was only aware after programme was shown on TV but he had apologised to Lord Alpine and my perspective of this is that Entwistle should be allowed to work for BBC but be demoted to another section of BBC.
I accept as the public, I think that Newsnight should remain open due to the information that is available through the newsnight but BBC should put down or fire or even change the journalist on the show.
Twitter users should not be charged as they are required to their freedom of speech but I think some people such as Iain Overton had used their freedom of speech to create a stir in society between politicians and people like Sally Bercow as they had been all speculating on Twitter.
