The BBC has defended giving Huw Edwards a £40,000 pay rise, despite him being off air for much of the last year. The former News At Ten presenter became the organisation’s third-highest presenter prior to resigning on “medical grounds” after being accused of paying a young person thousands of pounds for sexually explicit images.
"Mr Edwards had become a key figure for the BBC in recent years, playing a central role in the coverage of Queen Elizabeth II’s death and other major political events. For the seventh year in a row, Match of the Day star Gary Lineker topped the BBC’s list of best-paid stars.The former England and Tottenham forward earned between £1,350,000 - £1,354,999 in the last financial year.
