How’s BBC world handled this? I’ve flicked on a couple of times today and haven’t seen coverage of it. ---

I agree with Bashir. How could he be responsible for her death? I don’t think there is any correlation between the interview he had with Diana, of which she said - in her own words - “there were 3 of us in this marriage”. He didn’t make her say that. And especially, regarding her death - which was tragic and awful - how did he have any influence on the driver who was highly intoxicated and driving at excessive speeds? He had zero influence. We need to move on from this story. ---

I think he took advantage of Diana but I was more asking on the lines if Diana knew that at the time . Sorry I confused everyone. He should be held account. I can think of another case where journalism was not at its finest but it had more to do with News of the World newspaper not BBC. ---

This is not so much about BBC News/World News in general, but rather the BBC as a whole. It appears the BBC blocks are set for a _Reith_ makeover, the first update since October 1997. _BBC Reith_ is the name of their current organisation-wide typeface which debuted in 2019. Here’s an article from _The TV Room_: > **[New BBC blocks logo has been hiding in plain sight for months - Clean Feed](https://cleanfeed.thetvroom.com/9074/opinion/new-bbc-blocks-logo-has-been-hiding-in-plain-sight-for-months/)** > > As we first reported back in February, the BBC has been reviewing the design and usage of its masterbrand logo. ![proposed-bbc-logo-001-01](https://mediaspy-org-s3.s3.dualstack.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/1/9/19050973af90dedb027b9909adf4c1be06e631c8.png) > The scope of the branding review goes well beyond the main BBC logo however. Channel and service brands are also being updated, including big hitters such as BBC News, BBC Sport and BBC One.
