Staff fear BBC News is 'losing its distinct identity'
BBC News presenter Huw Edwards says staff are in mourning over 'the end of an era' as the broadcaster's world and domestic TV channels are to be merged. A standalone 24-hour channel - BBC News - will be created when the two are brought together.
Huw told MailOnline: "There's a real sense of the end of an era with experienced colleagues leaving and sadness that the news channel — a hugely successful platform for BBC News — [is] losing its distinct identity. But colleagues are also determined to try to make the new channel work for our licence payers."
