BBC axes What the Papers Say

By colinc

The BBC has axed its news review programme What the Papers Say, reports MediaGuardian.

The programme was the second longest running show on television. The BBC said it would not broadcast a new series as the way audiences consumed news had changed.

The What the Papers Say awards are now in doubt. Programme makers ITV Productions said they were looking for another home for the ten minute show.
