Carol McGiffin has insisted that ITV bosses have 'obvious contempt' for their audience after bosses were accused of referring to audiences as 'Tower Block Tracey's'.
Last week, ITV's chief executive Dame Carolyn McCall, managing director Kevin Lygo and general counsel and company secretary Kyla Mullins appeared at a government committee following the bombshell revelation that former This Morning host Phillip Schofield, had an affair with a much younger colleague.
During one particular segment of the hearing, the ITV trio were quizzed about allegations about the use of an offensive nickname used to describe their their viewers, which was 'Tower Block Tracey's.
