A former employee of Channel 4 News has told the Guardian she was left feeling “traumatised” and “gagged” after signing a settlement agreement containing a confidentiality clause with the company.
The Conservative MP Maria Miller, a former culture secretary and a campaigner against the use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), has written to the CEO of ITN, which produces Channel 4 News, saying she had been “approached by a number of whistleblowers”, and expressing her concern about “the apparent use of NDAs to cover up wrongdoing” around gender pay discrimination, harassment and bullying made against the public service broadcaster, the Times reported.
