The unidentified man has been suspended amid allegations an unnamed BBC presenter paid a teenager for sexually explicit images. Director general of the BBC Tim Davie has reiterated the state broadcaster is taking the allegations "incredibly seriously", as Piers Morgan takes a swipe at the BBC over its coverage regarding the matter. Following the male presenter's suspension being announced today, BBC News has shared an insight into how they navigate and report on stories about BBC employees and internal matters. "With stories like this one, BBC News journalists treat the BBC in the same way as any other organisation the news service reports on," the BBC writes within their report on the suspension. "And like with any other organisation, BBC News has to ask BBC management or BBC services for responses and contact the BBC press office for official statements. "Occasionally BBC journalists approach senior managers for unplanned interviews - known as "doorsteps" in the news business." It adds: "They also sometimes also get offered interviews with management - like this one with BBC Director General Tim Davie over the Gary Lineker row. "And when this happens, they know they'll be scrutinised within and outside the BBC over how well they hold their boss to account." Earlier today, former Good Morning Britain anchor Piers Morgan slammed the BBC for previous coverage of the allegations attached the unnamed presenter. "Ridiculous," Piers told his followers as he quote-tweeted another Twitter user saying: "BBC host asks BBC reporter standing outside the BBC about allegations against unnamed BBC star. BBC reporter says they 'haven't been able to confirm' whether the BBC presenter has been suspended by the BBC." Reports){kind=link}
