‘Don’t endorse, attack a political party’: BBC’s rules for flagship presenters after Gary Lineker row

High-profile presenters on the BBC can “express views” on issues but “stop short of political campaigning”.

These are the British broadcaster’s new social media rules for presenters of flagship programmes “outside news and current affairs”. BBC said they have a “particular responsibility to respect the BBC’s impartiality, because of their profile on the BBC”.
