Default BBC News to go on Strike - I want a Refund (now we have to pay £150,000 J.Ross Ofcom Fine as well)

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...rike-cuts.html

"BBC journalists will hold two days
of strike action next month which could
see the Ten O'Clock News, Newsnight
and the Today programme taken off the air."


If they Strike
I want 2 days Refunded.

ITV News do not strike
and they have been cut to bits.



Bloated BBC lets the UK Down.



Sign Of The Times.

Waterloo Road, Match of the Day and Family Guy are worth the license fee alone

I watch ITV and Sky News anyway so I won't be bothered about the BBC strike

No license fee would have a knock on effect on the rest of TV because the BBC and ITV would be fighting between advertisers, so theoretically ITV's revenue would at least half and they're already in big trouble. Then Channel 4 and five would also struggle to get advertisers because they've all gone to BBC1-4, ITV1-4 and as you go down from the biggest to the smallest commercial channels the problems will get bigger because each channel will be affected by better performing ones.

Tom that is right.. We can all moan about the licence fee but we get the whole BBC network for such a small price to pay! The BBC is known all over the world and it's ours.. The licence fee should be worth more with what we get.

Arista is beating on a broken drum with his bloated bbc rant.
The valid reasons for the licence fee out weighs any reason for the licence fee to be dumped.

8:30PM Friday Night Peak times.
Outtake TV Bloody Repeat.

And so Corrupt & typical of the Bloated BBC
they have put a New Logo on it saying "outaketv."
But it is a repeat shown many ,many times
on UKTV channels and the Poxy BBC , before.

Check your TV Mags
it says Not a repeat.
But it is.


This is why they should Refund us
The Bosses of the BBC said they would not show repeats
at peak times,
Mother********** Criminal Bastards




I Demand a Refund
Now.
