BBC breakfast President Richard Friedii faces more allegations of bullying and misconduct at the workplace, as the great broadcaster Naga Monchiti believes among those who believe they have concerns about his behavior.
Last month, the pluscinemaz.comrevealed how Vidyiani was at least two Shakatin's subject of misconduct, including one of a woman who was supported after the claim that breakfast The editor was physically shook it during the exchange of the newsroom last year.
Now, the pluscinemaz.comcan mention that concerns about Vidyian behavior are deeper in the BBC, while it was also accused of inappropriate behavior in the former employer, ITN, as it was supervised by the same executives who are now running the BBC News. BBC refused to comment on individual human resources issues. Frediani's position is that he was not aware of any complaints filed about his behavior in ITN.
After nine Vedian colleagues spoke to the pluscinemaz.comfor our original achievement, 11 other people advanced to discuss their experiences. Seven of these individuals worked with Frediani in ITN, where he played great roles in the team that produces ITV news. We can reveal:
- Several sources said breakfast The presenter, Naga Monchiti, raised concerns with the BBC's presidents about Pedician behavior. Tina Dahli chose another big introduction, not to appear on News in oneThe leading leaflet that Frediani also edits.

- Ashradi Ashrafian in ITN and Jonathan Munro, BBC News, Jeddiani honored in ITN, and the sources claimed that they are familiar with his reputation. You cannot remember any complaints that are submitted about Friediian in ITN.
- After the original story of the deadline, breakfast Employees were told that the allegations of misconduct will be dealt with seriously, but some are doubtful that the action will be taken due to a Pedician position in the BBC News.
These allegations come at a time when the BBC is preparing to publish an external review of its culture in the workplace later this month, after a series of scandals about the behavior of powerful men. The General Manager of the BBC Tim Devi said that he wants to change Associas, administrative consultations that lead the review, to provide practical recommendations on how managers create a culture where there is no “tolerance” in order to commit violations. Davi told legislators last month that the BBC had improved her complaints in dealing with it and that the employees are more confident in the operations, but he said that if there were examples of not being treated fears seriously, it is a “first -class” issue.

Separately, three sources said that Radio 2 from the news judge, Tina Dahli, chose not to appear on Vidician News in one. She was called an introduction to the newsletter last May, but it was said that she was very upset with how to announce her appointment.
Press statement revealed the veil One news in one The collection of distinctive photos of all white news your guests was shown, but did not depict Dahaley, for every archived web page. BBC press office assumed full responsibility for the error, which was quickly corrected after Dahaley expressed its dissatisfaction. A source said, Frediani, who was conveyed in the press statement, said that he did not see the final version before it was published on the BBC. I apologize later to Dahili. Dahli did not respond to the suspension requests.
Munchitety and Dahley worked for more than 17 years, both of which distinguish among the company's most paid offices. Munchitety crawls her breakfast Duties with Radio 5 Live, while Dahley also hosts Views and Sixth news.
The other BBC employees came with their experiences. One person claimed that he witnessed an accident in 2019, when Vediani besieged “angryly angry” a breakfast A colleague of the wall and was “connecting his finger” as he expresses his dissatisfaction with that morning. Two sources claim that a Vedianian is known as “screaming” below the phone in other BBC news offices and complains about the quality of the content they provide. breakfast.
In the period that followed the story of the pluscinemaz.comfor Vidician, the insiders said that he acted as if the work was as usual. The next day to publish, breakfast and News in one Email employees were sent by John Mamkandro, BBC News Director, to remind them of the company's approach to complaints of violations.
“With regard to culture and behavior – this symbolizes all our teams throughout the organization – please make sure that if any allegations of any inappropriate behavior come, they will be taken seriously, and if supported, and if supported, then action will be taken,” McKandaro wrote.
Some in breakfast They were doubtful in this message, given that Fridiani was the subject of complaints, yet he was rewarded with more power. The presidents knew that Fridiani was accused of shaking a colleague last year before expanding his responsibilities to include News in one. A source for the British Broadcasting Corporation said: “He has told many people again and again that there was a problem, and that they have not done anything about it.”
“The tyrant is on the store's floor”
Seven of the Fredede colleagues, who spoke to the pluscinemaz.comprovided that their identity is not disclosed, has experienced their experiences in his behavior. He did two talismans in ITN, and a total of about 14 years lasted, the last of which was between 2012 and 2019, when he left to join BBC breakfast.
Former colleagues said that he was “a tyrant in the store hall,” said former colleagues in the newsroom with “an unjust aggression”, which creates a culture of fear among those around him, including his heads. ITN refused to comment on historical allegations about Vidician.
Those who were interviewed by the pluscinemaz.comclaimed that he would undermine colleagues in the liberation meetings by mutating and divided under his breath, and took tasks away from the journalists who did not hold them, smile or rolled publicly in the story suggestions that did not meet his standards. “A public humiliation exercise will be in the middle of the office,” said someone at meetings.
Others recalled him with stand -alone rows, screaming, divided, and his finger is raised in the direction of co -workers. “He is used to entering your personal space when talking to you, or tending to you, and perhaps a bush from your face, or to get to clarify a point.”
The sources claimed that he was routinely ignored or colleagues, who considered him a “unwanted person”, were marginalized, stripping them of responsibility or freezing them from the desired stories. The sources said that this is because Frican did not personally reside the individual or had clashed with them previously. “In isolation, this does not seem very important … but it had such a poisonous effect on people,” said another from the interior ITN.
The allegations were echoed by those who were informed of the British Broadcasting Authority, who shared stories about his alleged aggression and expressed their regret for the “clubs” atmosphere that he created breakfastWhere the preferred bonus is made and others are excluded in the cold. There is a feeling that his behavior does not correspond to the BBC values about fairness and inclusiveness.
Many of Frediani's former ITN's workshops said that complaints were submitted about his behavior, although it is not clear how official these grievances were. Someone told the pluscinemaz.comthat they had submitted a complaint to the director and resources of humanity about Vidician behavior, but they were said to be accustomed to his style.
Others said they did not stop complaining because they were worried that it will not be treated seriously by ITN or may be harmful to their professional life. One person said: “If you filed an official complaint, it would have fallen on deaf ears, and I had been slowly pressed.”
Deborah drag
Vidyiani was editor of ITV News in the last year of Deborah Tunisia as a total service editor before joining NBC News. Jonathan Monroe, global news director of BBC News, worked in a major role in ITV News during this time. One of them said: “dragons are completely aware of what it is.” Another source, an experienced journalist, claimed that “faults” had turned into the alleged Vidyian behavior.
Turness website is that it does not remember any complaint, formal or informal, about Vidician during the time it interfered with ITN. Monroe was also not aware of complaints and heavily denied that “faults” had turned into any alleged misconduct. Frediani's position is that he was not aware of any complaints about his behavior and did not raise anything with him.
ITN is currently facing questions about its dealings with historical complaints and the use of non -disclosure agreements after an independent report concluded last year that employees have “low confidence” in management operations. The pluscinemaz.comcan reveal that the company that is recently working on people's puzzles, an external human resource consulting, to improve complaints and complaints management. The employees were recently surveyed for their experiments.
“We are committed to the culture of openness and confidence, which includes ensuring that any concern is caused at any time, and it is treated immediately, comprehensive and just.”
