"What is the future of Business on the BBC?" - David Waddell

David Waddell, a Senior BBC Business Producer, joins Rory McGowan in today's episode of A Face for Radio to talk about his 24 year career in the BBC, touching on his journey through the broadcast journalism industry, from being a text producer at Sky News to his current role as a producer of business news.

He touches on growing up during the Troubles, what it was like being a Chief Picture Producer for the last five general elections and how the BBC approaches business-led stories with the goal of being impartial throughout.

This episode was recorded before the resignation of Tim Davie from the BBC and the scandal involving the Panorama programme and President Trump. That's why when they discuss impartiality in the BBC, this is never brought up.
