So Cheap films and fillers
BBC journalists have voted for two days of industrial action, over the Corporation's plans for compulsory redundancies. Just over one third of the BBC's 4,000 journalists took part in a ballot, organised by the National Union of Journalists. Union members voted 77 per cent in favour of strike action. BBC TV, radio and online news services are expected to be disrupted by the strike action, scheduled to take place on April 03 2009 and April 09 2009.
Those believed to be affected by the threat of compulsory cuts include staff at the BBC World Service South Asian section, where twenty positions are understood to be under threat; further job losses are also in the pipeline at BBC Scotland.
