http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2013/may/24/bbc-digital-media-initiative-failure BBC suspends technology officer after Digital Media Initiative failure James Purnell, BBC's director of strategy and digital: "We've messed up, we're sorry" £100 million of our money down the drain (again). Has or will anyone be fired as a consequence of this fiasco ? Probably not. Will anyone receive a knighthood or a very substantial bonus for this incompetence ? More than likely.
