Sounds as though it's from a reliable source, this information, doesn't it. Wink

Its as good as you want to believe it is basically.

They did get the Mark Oaten thing right about 3 weeks before it broke.

I hope not ! Shocked John is an absolutely fantastic and legendary Newscaster. I'm astouded he's been so ITN Loyal (and faithful) - it would be a massive blow to Channel 4 and ITN if he defected! Sad

If I remember right - I'm sure John said he wouldn't work for anyone else but ITN! I guess we'll have to wait and see, if it's true or not. Exclamation

Where would he go at the Beeb? IMO he would be good on Newsnight.

...to host the 1 o'clock news?

Sounds like a demotion if that happened.

He should be on Newsnight or the sole presenter of the Six.

I daren't say anything more for risk of libelling Asa, and crucially as I have immense respect for Snow. But lets just say there is a history!
