[Swprograms] Trojan horses

[Mike Barraclough <softbulletin1@xxxxxxxxx>]

John Figliozzi suggested BBC's new management was a
trojan horse by the commercial sector? Who? Which
sector?
Mark Thompson has worked mainly in the BBC and a few
years at Channel 4. 

Channel 4 is a public corporation but has to fund
itself by advertising
http://fixedreference.org/en/20040424/wikpedia/Channel_4

It carries the best news programme on British
terrestrial TV at 7 p.m - 8 p.m nightly and its
programming mix is more interesting than BBC1 whilst
that works through the Dyke commission trash. You cant
classify it as the commercial sector as it has no
shareholders.

Five Live read out emails they had received after the
strike ended and the majority were sympathetic to BBC
management, many quite blunt. The BBC is overstaffed
on public money, the UK public wants to see the money
go into distinctive programming not unnecessary
staffing and non core activities. The BBC budget from
the licence fee is pretty generous.

Mike
