    Trained at two US outfits, PepsiCo and Procter and Gamble. Doesn't bode well. The salary is obscenely high and out of all proportion in the current climate of redundancy, bankruptcy and recession.

    'Before joining the BBC in 2005 he was the vice president of marketing at PepsiCo Europe and previously worked in marketing for Procter and Gamble.

    It was also reported that Mr Davie will take a pay cut to be the BBC’s 17th director-general, taking around £525,000 a year ⁠— down from his executive wage of £642,000.'

    Morning Star.
