'Mark Thompson is a British media executive who is the current Chief Executive Officer of The New York Times Company. From 2004 to 2012, he served as Director-General of the BBC, and before that was the Chief Executive of Channel 4.' Wiki He is a supporter of Zionist Israel and with his American wife, Jane Blumberg, visited Ariel Sharon in 2005, a year after he was appointed as Director General. He also supported the banning of the DEC appeal at the time of the Israeli onslaught on Gaza in 2008/9. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Thompson_(media_executive) Nine years ago he was collecting just under £1m pa salary from the BBC licence fee payers. He supported the banning by Caroline Thomson, his sidekick COO, of the Radio 4 play Seven Jewish Children written by Caryl Churchill about Cast Lead. Seven Jewish Children https://g.co/kgs/VzR1LU Thomson took a massive redundancy payment of £670k (not including her +£300k pay)from the BBC for not getting the DG's job. Now chair of OXFAM! Irony alert. She is married to Lord Liddle. He was a SPAD to Blair on European affairs and also to Barroso, then the EU President. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caroline_Thomson What a crew. I have just seen that Thompson purchased a $3.4million apartment in Manhattan. Nice work! PS Don't mention the Jimmy Savile scandal/cover up at the BBC. |
