Carrie Gracie (born 1962)[1] is a Scottish journalist and newsreader best known as having been China Editor for BBC News.[2]

She resigned from this post at the beginning of January 2018, citing what she said was subject to sex based pay discrimination for the BBC's international editors. She returned to her former post in the BBC newsroom until August 2020, when she announced unexpectedly that she would be leaving the corporation to pursue other interests.
