Government controlling the media... still denying a lurch toward autocracy?

i am absolutely 100% against people (particularly the elderly) being processed as criminals for watching a TV. It's so disproportionate and unfair

[Paul Siegert, the NUJ's national broadcasting organiser,
called the announcement
a "direct consequence of the government's
decision to refuse to fund the BBC adequately".

He added: "The two year freeze on the
licence fee has left the BBC with some
tough decisions to make.

"It's the second restructuring
for BBC England in the past two years,
and a clear sign that the first process
was ill-thought through and
poorly implemented."]

Why not move BBC3 online?

I mean, which audience is more likely to want to watch something on their main TV - someone who'd watch the kinds of documentaries and retrospectives BBC4 puts out ... Or someone who watches the crap on BBC3?

the way its going, all their content will be on iplayer and their news channel on the normal channels. That sets it up nicely for a subscription model in the future

Of Course they spent big money
Promoting BBC3 on its return to TV.

So BBC3 was only online for a few years,

It is shame BBC4 TV is going online
but it will be a few years, yet
they still have to give a date

It’s always ‘bothered’ me that GL presents as such a nice , squeaky clean individual whilst his brother is reportedly the exact opposite

it's ultimately the persons popularity that dictates the salary they are paid. Someone in high demand will always command the big bucks

Tbf we shouldn't judge Gary Lineker off his Brother's actions, good or bad.

She can no longer afford the BBC TV Tax
