This is a normal post The BBC does not need saving.....let it die
And why would you pay a double licence fee to the BBC to watch youtube videos you can watch for free now?
Oh....sorry.....you were being ironic

This is a normal post I know the BBC gets a lot of criticism - particularly over bias in political coverage
Bit a media landscape without them would be far worse. Murdoch / Daily Mail are far more toxic & would kid delight in the death of BBC and sail further into untruth and horror.

This is a normal post might be more useful to consider bbc as an umbrella term - bbc news is not bbc comedy for example
and a lot of stuff is outsourced to private production companies - presenters of the today programme are encouraged to set themselves up as private companies even. similar issues arise when discussing the nhs

This is a normal post A redefinition of terms would be very useful.
Why what is called TV Licensing is continuing to fund an ever increasing website is beyond the ken of my tiny little mind. Why all BBC content is free at the point of access to all when getting caught without a TV License can result in a big fine baffles my pretty little head. The time to turn the state public service broadcaster into a optional subscription service is long overdue. Who wouldn't be happy to pay for Mel & Sue's Generation Game?

This is a normal post if youtube is so much bigger than the beeb
why have all these independent producers and presenters not just set up their own channels?

This is a normal post Because it is easier money to extort a BBC fee than it is to earn it directly from subscriptions.
Entertainment which is "free at the point of use" is driving out other means of providing it. Even entertainment funded by advertising is having a hard time.

This is a normal post so learn your chops and make your mark in the public sector
punch your producer in the face over a sandwich to get sacked and go on to earn more in relative obscurity in the private sector? lolitics. revolving doors make me dizzy

This is a normal post Eastenders is shit. And so is George Alagiah. I don't want to be forced to contribute to either.

This is a normal post The Reunion this morning was mildly amusing. I'd always thought that was a serious show, but there's nothing the BBC won't dumb down.

This is a normal post Benny loves diversity, just not diversity of opinion.
