Tributes have been paid to Jon Snow, known to TV viewers for his loud ties and calm anchoring of Channel 4 News for more than three decades, as the 74-year-old journalist signed off on his last programme. Snow will continue to work with Channel 4 on long-form projects and spend more time focusing on his charitable work.
