You capture the essence of the Beeb so well, PhilR, as only a professional can. So where is the justification, might I, ask of an organisation
funded by direct taxation
that has
archaic beliefs and traditions.....leading to some rather strange agendas at play
I have just watched the Sun Military Awards "Millies" on Sky. Channel 4 News is invariably the broadcaster leading with the airworthiness scandal and other military stories. The Beeb is no longer the sole Public Service broadcaster, yet it continues its privileged existence as though it is. Should it not sink or swim, as they must, and earn its own keep too in order to push out its agenda as instanced by the thread subject?(got that bit in as I sense Pop's finger edging even now towards the thread drift button!).
