I trust you won’t be shocked to learn that this story had to be reported off the Beeb:
BBC ‘buried Savile sex abuse claims to save its reputation’. . .
The BBC had hoped to broadcast the Newsnight report in December, two months after Savile’s death, but bosses ordered that the investigation be dropped. Instead, the corporation screened two tribute programmes celebrating Savile’s lengthy BBC career as presenter of Jim’ll Fix It and Top of the Pops, and also as a Radio 1 DJ.
