Michael Grade will land up to £10m after dramatically quitting his job at the BBC and defecting to arch rivals ITV - admitting his first move could be to bring back the News At Ten. Grade, who said he wanted to bring "stability" and "confidence" to the broadcaster , will take home a salary of £825,000 per year in his new role as executive chairman at ITV...
But his pay will be massively increased by a range of pay perks in his three-year deal.
He also admitted that one of his first priorities would be to look at the "provision of news" on ITV and did not rule out bringing back the News At Ten, which was axed in favour of the current 10.30pm bulletin, which became the permanent nightly bulletin in February 2004.
