Links to "BBC News"[edit]

There are links to "BBC News" in the infobox. They link to BBC News, but "This article is about the organisation within the BBC. For the television channel, see BBC News (TV channel)." Cf. the first sentence in the article. Robinson is working in the television channel BBC News (TV channel). Please, look there for further information. Am I right? Or am I wrong? --Cabanero01 (talk) 13:03, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As he's worked for both TV and radio, on many BBC channels, the current link seems appropriate. Dr Greg talk 13:17, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
