- einpoklum 6y agoPerhaps everybody except a few top presenters? I'm speculating based on experience where I live: When contract negotiations in the public sector comes up, the finance ministry makes a point of having its loyal economic affairs journalists and pundits point out how the top paying position at, say, some port authority is almost as high as the prime minister's. But they neglect to mention that 99.975% of employees make a lot less then that; and it was a one-time situation where the guy worked extra overtime; and that they also counted employer taxes rather than what the employee gets etc. etc.
- Mindwipe 6y agoCommon /= stupid. The BBC pay very badly for presenters too, but especially for anything below that. The British press is a big fan of misrepresentation.
