:00:09. > :00:12.This is BBC News. We will look at the papers in just a moment but
:00:13. > :00:15.first, the headlines. A damning report says the BBC missed
:00:16. > :00:18.multiple chances to stop sex It says some junior staff knew
:00:19. > :00:23.about the allegations but a culture of fear stopped them
:00:24. > :00:37.taking it further. The culture
:00:38. > :00:40.of the BBC certainly enabled both Savile and Stuart Hall
:00:41. > :00:46.to go undetected for decades. The BBC Director General admits
:00:47. > :00:49.senior managers could have known about the crimes committed
:00:50. > :00:51.by Jimmy Savile and Stuart Hall. It was a dark chapter
:00:52. > :00:55.in the history of the organisation but a much darker one
:00:56. > :00:58.for all of you, the BBC failed you then it should
:00:59. > :01:00.have protected you. In the fallout, veteran DJ
:01:01. > :01:02.Tony Blackburn leaves the BBC
:01:03. > :01:04.amid a row about his co-operation He says he's been
:01:05. > :01:13.made a 'scapegoat'. In Sportsday, the Europa League
:01:14. > :01:18.results. Manchester United, are they still in the competition? Tottenham
:01:19. > :01:22.and Liverpool playing this evening, a James Milner penalties seeing
:01:23. > :01:28.Liverpool through to the draw for the last 16. And we will have the
:01:29. > :01:42.six Nations rugby and there is a ding-dong at the boxing.
:01:43. > :01:45.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
:01:46. > :01:50.With me are the columnist for the Independent,
:01:51. > :01:55.James Rampton, and the broadcaster Stephanie Hirst.
:01:56. > :02:00.I'm sure that James is known to all and sundry, but Stephanie is here
:02:01. > :02:10.for the first time. Not looking too anxious! The i newspaper, the BBC
:02:11. > :02:13.saying they are to blame after a report on the activities of Jimmy
:02:14. > :02:19.Savile and Stuart Hall. The metro newspaper, the lawyer for many of
:02:20. > :02:25.the victims accusing the report of being a whitewash.
:02:26. > :02:28.The Guardian describes the BBC and Tony Blackburn of being at war
:02:29. > :02:40.According to the FT, the Chancellor George Osborne
:02:41. > :02:43.is pushing the Group of 20 leading economies to warn about the dangers
:02:44. > :02:47.The Independent reports Theresa May is planning to broaden
:02:48. > :02:49.powers to deport people with dual nationality found guilty of abuse.
:02:50. > :02:52.The Telegraph says family doctors will be told that they are wrongly
:02:53. > :02:58.diagnosing hundreds of thousands of children with asthma.
:02:59. > :03:07.We will begin with several of the front pages focusing on Dame Janet
:03:08. > :03:15.Smith's report into the activities of Jimmy Savile and Stuart Hall
:03:16. > :03:24.within the BBC. We start with the i, the director-general making a
:03:25. > :03:29.apology after a scathing report into Savile and Hall. A harrowing day for
:03:30. > :03:33.the victims. Yes, it is very good what was said, that the BBC failed
:03:34. > :03:39.to protect them, it is right that Tony Hall made a public apology and
:03:40. > :03:44.I believe that lawyer for presenting many victims were pleased that it
:03:45. > :03:47.had been said. As the Metro points out, there is a belief among some
:03:48. > :03:54.victims that it has been an expensive whitewash, costing ?6.5
:03:55. > :03:59.million, running to 1000 pages and still no one is named as being
:04:00. > :04:04.culpable, passing on information that they might have known about.
:04:05. > :04:07.Some of the details Dame Janet has unearthed are really shocking,
:04:08. > :04:11.Television Centre complaints to her Television Centre complaints to her
:04:12. > :04:14.supervisor in the 80s that they had been sexually assaulted by Jimmy
:04:15. > :04:21.Savile and they were told, keep your mouth shut, he's a VIP. Shopping.
:04:22. > :04:28.When I -- shocking. When I heard that, it is like they created a
:04:29. > :04:31.monster. Some papers are asking whether there are other people in
:04:32. > :04:37.other organisations who may be predatory paedophiles. That was the
:04:38. > :04:40.setting thing I'm sure for many people to hear, whatever the BBC's
:04:41. > :04:49.values as an organisation at the time, they were regarded as much as
:04:50. > :05:02.a priority as the celebrities, talent, the work that is still used.
:05:03. > :05:09.Metro talking about the outrage. How relevant is it that individuals were
:05:10. > :05:14.not named in the report? It is suggested that Dame Janet did not
:05:15. > :05:20.have the legal power to oblige people to justify which may be part
:05:21. > :05:24.of the problem, but the lawyer representing 168 Savile victims asks
:05:25. > :05:27.whether it is plausible to imagine this did not reach the upper edge
:05:28. > :05:34.alums of the BBC? She says many will feel that it is an expensive
:05:35. > :05:40.whitewash. -- upper edge alums -- upper levels. Jimmy Savile allegedly
:05:41. > :05:46.used to say to people "You can't touch me, I know the Archbishop of
:05:47. > :05:52.Canterbury, the Prince of Wales." He boasted about these people. This
:05:53. > :06:02.persona. It made him seem untouchable. How much has society
:06:03. > :06:17.changed, how much more do we listen these days? It has changed a lot, I
:06:18. > :06:21.understand that Tony Hall and Janet Smith have not said this, but it is
:06:22. > :06:26.a different time, but that is no excuse because there are survivors.
:06:27. > :06:31.There is a lot more for the BBC to do and the i say that the NSPCC are
:06:32. > :06:35.being brought in to insure that children are protected. That's great
:06:36. > :06:38.because the most important thing firstly is to apologise to the
:06:39. > :06:44.victims and try and bring about some closure for them. Next, make sure it
:06:45. > :06:49.doesn't happen again. If the NSPCC can help, that's brilliant. The
:06:50. > :06:55.Daily Express have a different direction, saying the BBC has hung
:06:56. > :07:03.Tony Blackburn out to dry, according to him. The evidence he gave to Dame
:07:04. > :07:09.Janet Smith was regarded as being substandard. I'm surprised they have
:07:10. > :07:12.gone with this headline rather than the standard BBC headline. Or all of
:07:13. > :07:21.the things they could have chosen to run with. The Guardian as well. My
:07:22. > :07:26.take on it, it has to be something that is new. This time yesterday we
:07:27. > :07:30.didn't know about this Tony Blackburn story, so this is new news
:07:31. > :07:34.for the papers. We knew about Jimmy Savile and Stuart Hall, but the
:07:35. > :07:37.Blackbird angle is new which is why some papers have gone with it
:07:38. > :07:44.because people won't have heard it. -- Tony Blackburn. He says he's
:07:45. > :07:50.talking to his lawyers potential legal action. George Osborne
:07:51. > :07:58.pressing Finance ministers to warn against Brexit, this is the G20
:07:59. > :08:07.leading economies. A really good thing. It depends on your view! A
:08:08. > :08:15.bit sensitive about bias here, Stefanie! Sorry, I will try not to
:08:16. > :08:24.leap in quite so quickly. Trying to gather support. For me, I think
:08:25. > :08:28.staying in the EU is the right thing because if you look at what the
:08:29. > :08:32.economy was like five years ago, leading us down a path where we may
:08:33. > :08:36.not be in the situation now where businesses are flourishing again,
:08:37. > :08:41.the economy is getting back again. I hate to do it, but I absolutely
:08:42. > :08:52.agree with you. Oh, dear. What has been dubbed this morning a Romaniac,
:08:53. > :08:57.poultry and kind to those of us who want to remain but I think those of
:08:58. > :09:00.us who want to remain ideological, it would send a terrible message to
:09:01. > :09:05.detach ourselves from Europe, it would make us seem insular, if not
:09:06. > :09:10.xenophobic. I feel quite passionate about it that we shouldn't exit. I
:09:11. > :09:13.respect the fact that people feel passion of the other way but that's
:09:14. > :09:18.my opinion and I'm glad that George Osborne is going to try and put it
:09:19. > :09:24.in the G20 communique. People feel we have lost sovereignty to Europe,
:09:25. > :09:29.we have laws foisted on us that are not of our choosing, not controlling
:09:30. > :09:33.our borders, immigration levels, we can't control them because we are
:09:34. > :09:37.part of the EU, they are powerful arguments for those who are voting
:09:38. > :09:42.in the referendum. They will be, but I think that when I look at the
:09:43. > :09:45.bigger picture, I think of the damage that could be done if we
:09:46. > :09:52.leave, I think is the right thing to stay. This is perhaps an emotional
:09:53. > :09:57.response but Angela Merkel last year said that this is the first time in
:09:58. > :10:03.Europe's history, 70 years without a walk and that is partly down to the
:10:04. > :10:10.EU. We are cooperating -- without a war. Within the EU, there hasn't
:10:11. > :10:14.been... Between France, Germany, Spain, Holland, we had been fighting
:10:15. > :10:20.for two millennia, and 70 years is the longest period in Western Europe
:10:21. > :10:26.where we have not had a war. That's why the EU has made a difference, I
:10:27. > :10:38.would argue. Let's move on, please! Sorry to be such a remainiac. Powers
:10:39. > :10:42.designed to fight terrorism, sex abusers to be stripped of UK
:10:43. > :10:50.citizenship. This is coming off the back of something in the news
:10:51. > :10:54.yesterday. The Home Secretary is planning to significantly increase
:10:55. > :10:57.her department's use of legal powers allowing serious criminals with dual
:10:58. > :11:05.nationality to have their British and ship -- British citizenship
:11:06. > :11:10.withdrawn because of Asian sex gangs. This is people who may be
:11:11. > :11:15.born in another place? The potential for them, what would happen? They
:11:16. > :11:19.would be deported to the country of their birth. What intrigues me, a
:11:20. > :11:23.line at the end, David Greenwood, a solicitor representing some of the
:11:24. > :11:30.victims, said that this is the tip of a very big iceberg. I find that
:11:31. > :11:33.really scary. This is a shocking case, sending shock waves through
:11:34. > :11:37.the country, the depravity and cruelty that these men inflicted on
:11:38. > :11:42.the young girls, and that this may be the beginning of the story, that
:11:43. > :11:47.shakes me to think about. The abuse of predominately white girls by
:11:48. > :11:50.mainly Asian men has lead to prosecutions across the North of
:11:51. > :11:57.England and the Midlands, and more trials to come. That's it, not a
:11:58. > :12:02.particularly... Sorry! Welcome to the paper review! We will try and
:12:03. > :12:08.find something with a bit more levity, can't promise. James and
:12:09. > :12:14.Stephanie will be back, hopefully with opinions that differ on certain
:12:15. > :12:19.subjects, at 11:30pm. Stay with us. Coming up next, Sportsday.
