Naga Munchetty looks stoney-faced after BBC Breakfast staff liken show to Hunger Games amid ‘bully' claims
BBC HOSTS Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt were seen leaving the Breakfast studio this morning amid claims the workplace was like 'the Hunger Games'.
Naga, 50, sported a pair of sunglasses and was seen wheeling a suitcase as she made her exit following this morning's broadcast.

The presenter was stony-faced following damning claims she bullied a female junior staff member.
Naga was also alleged to have used a slang term for a sexual act off-air.
It comes after Breakfast's editor Richard Frediani has now taken leave amid separate bullying claims.
Naga is said to have used a crude slang term for a sex act during an off-air break — before asking a colleague if they had done it.
The alleged remark stunned the Radio 5 Live studio and led to Naga being hauled before bosses.
She was reprimanded by a senior producer but no formal action was taken.
A source said: 'Breakfast is no longer just divided, it's been ripped apart.
"Some workers back Frediani's tougher, more traditional journalistic approach and think the 'softies' need thicker skin.
'Others find him to be a bully and have welcomed the investigation into his behaviour.
"That already created two camps on the show. But the revelations about Naga have thrown a new twist on the scandal.
'Some find her a passionate advocate of people behind the scenes, while others find her as difficult as Fredi.
'This explosive mix has led to a deluge of revelations from both sides, creating a huge headache for the BBC as it scrambles to mop up the mess. It's everyone for themselves like the Hunger Games.'
