Why hasn't the BBC presenter been named publicly?
Since the news broke on Friday that a male BBC star had allegedly requested explicit pictures from a then-teenager in return for cash, many people have asked publicly, why his name has not been released.One of the key considerations is that the allegations made in The Sun newspaper are just that - allegations.
It is not clear whether evidence has been seen by The Sun, and if it has, what that evidence is and who has supplied it. Even then, other outlets, including Sky News, have not seen any evidence and would be relying on The Sun's reporting. It is also unclear if any laws have been broken, without knowing the content of the alleged photographs, and when exactly they were sent.
And for the BBC, bosses will obviously know who the man at the centre of this is, as they have suspended him, but even still, they will want to thoroughly investigate the allegations before releasing his name.
