Bbc in terms of quality is imo no better or worse then many other channels all of them have their gems and their turds always have always will. Chrysalis does have a point on the documentary side of it though in recent years there appears to be a definate agenda going on. I have lost count of how many welfare programs i have seen on the bbc that take a tiny minority of people and represent them as the norm and it is annoying as hell and only helps to enforce this belief that welfare in the UK is being taken for a ride constantly.

As for salaries of top people yes they may be high but there is more then a grain of truth to the "you have to pay for the best" and the people moaning about the salaries of some of the top presenters would also soon be quick to moan about the bbc paying the cost of training many top people who then left if the bbc didn't have competitive salary to keep them they cannot win on that one.

We are all going to have to make savings in our expenditure in the coming years cutting back on things we would rather not thats just how it is now and the bbc should not be immune frrom that.
