    But there can be no full transparency with anonymity. The public cannot make any judgement on the wisdom of how their money is being spent without knowing precisely who it is being spent on.

    If you reveal that an anonymous TV figure is being paid that much more than the BBC's political editor, I would probably shrug and assume it is some big name or other and assume that they're probably worth it. When I find out it's Nick Knowles, however, my sense of grievance is piqued because he is a relatively minor personality who clearly has a shït-hot agent.

    We also find out that the 2 One Show presenters are on different salaries for doing the same job.... you need to know who gets what imo

    Nobody seems to mind a bit of mean-spiritedness though, do they? Perhaps it depends if you get it coming, rather than going, as it were.
