Breaching rights to privacy is also a central concern. A landmark ruling at the Supreme Court in 2022, Bloomberg v ZXC, means someone is entitled to privacy if they are under a criminal investigation but have not yet been formally charged and sent to the courts, Mr Kuncewicz said.
Mark Stephens, media law expert and partner at Howard Kennedy, said there was “a second layer of privacy” at issue here, the “contractual arrangement” between the BBC and its members of staff. “That’s doesn’t matter whether you’re a celebrity or in the local office or on the building site, the same law applies.
Mr Stephens said that this “second layer of privacy” was preventing the BBC from defending the innocent presenters from being named.
