\n Georgy Jamieson, who recently became the new breakfast co-host on Broadland Radio, said she felt “harassed and vulnerable” following comments directed at her online and via text messaging.\n<\/p>\n
\n Ms James, who now presents the station’s breakfast show with Chris Skinner, said: “I have been forced to deactivate my Facebook because I feel harassed and vulnerable because of some of the comments on there.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Added to that, we have received texts to the station, some of which are from some listeners known to us, and they were, quite frankly, sinister, unhinged and more than a little threatening.\n<\/p>\n
\n “I\u2019m just trying to do a job. Nothing more.\n<\/p>\n
\n “There\u2019s no agenda, there\u2019s no conspiracy.\n<\/p>\n
\n “I\u2019m a wife, a daughter, a mother, an ordinary person with family and friends and feelings. Please respect that.”\n<\/p>\n
\n She confirmed she was asked to step in for holiday cover on the show, which then led to a permanent offer.\n<\/p>\n

\n It follows the recent departure of broadcaster Rob Chandler, who had previously presented the show.\n<\/p>\n
\n Mr Chandler, who marks 47 years in radio this week, addressed listeners in a candid social media post.\n<\/p>\n
\n He said it had been his own decision to leave the show and not that of the station, having initially gone away on holiday.\n<\/p>\n
\n Mr Chandler had cited “demoralising” meetings as the reason behind his departure and said that the station was heading in a new direction.\n<\/p>\n
\n Ms Jamieson has previously presented shows on BBC Radio Suffolk and Norfolk, as well as acting as a producer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Georgy Jamieson, who recently became the new breakfast co-host on Broadland Radio, said she felt “harassed and vulnerable”…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":751649,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[96,128,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-751648","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-music","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/751648","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=751648"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/751648\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/751649"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=751648"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=751648"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=751648"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
