Your report on staff concerns about the number of female presenters on BBC Radio Scotland’s new schedule is mystifying (‘Deep unease’ at BBC Radio Scotland as majority of axed presenters are women, 28 May). When the new schedule starts, of the 25 daytime programmes across the week Monday to Friday, six will routinely be presented solely by men, and the other 19 will be routinely presented either solely by women, or jointly by women and men.
More than half of the programmes will be routinely presented solely by women. To somehow raise questions about female diversity in that presenting lineup is surely ignoring the actual evidence of the BBC schedule here in Scotland.
