The BBC wants to increase the licence fee, and, guess what, the Guardian agrees:
“At a time when many of our traditional industries have lost their international reputation, the BBC has managed to maintain a blue chip brand of global excellence by combining technological innovation with editorial independence. It has proved a winning combination that is well worth backing for the future”.
Well, it’s an opinion.
The BBC have run a comment section on whether the TVL fee should be increased. Surprisingly (that they print them – but not in result) at leasy 80% of those commenting are against it.
Talksport the biggest national radio station did a pole of its listening public and 92% though the BBC was bad value for money. Seems that you can say anything you want with statistics and we should all know the self appointed “protector of the public interest” BBC is as dodgy as anyone.
