cannot for the life of me understand why they gutted the youngster channel and kept bbc 4 when all their shows could have been aired on bbc2 in theory.
Part of me cynically thinks since 2010 a lot of conservative members have been put on the bbc board....and yet in my eyes the bbc news department has been rather pro tory especially with laura kussenberg. But then again a lot of people on social media say its biased to labour which ive never thought in the slightest but hey ho its the social media world ripping the world apart with "he said, she said" interpretations and to be brutally honest i can't be bothered anymore ...
i think either way a public broadcaster dying is a bad thing but neither do i agree with how its been run. the danger is letting the fox in the pen though and now we will have money men running all the channels portraying what they want to be known ala fox news.
which btw never launched on virgin media sadly for the comedy value
