Reuters' Olympics team

I write in connection with the dropping of Paul Radford from the Olympics reporting team for asking for “too many people”.

There seems to be an unfortunate editing juxtaposition of this story with Tom Glocer’s payoff in your headline menu.

• Reuters drops top sports editor from Olympics team
• Tom Glocer gets nearly $20 million payoff.

May I suggest you correct this lapse?

It might appear mischievous and misleading to some to suggest that an organisation that pays a former head a $20 million golden handshake cannot afford an Olympics reporting team of the size its award-winning and much-respected editor suggested. ■
