Title: "BBC in crisis?"
Post by Administrator on Feb 23^rd, 2014, 1:36pm

A review of the book:- 'Is the BBC in Crisis?’ (Abramis, £19.95), edited by John Mair, Richard Tait and Richard Lance Keeble, to be published on 1 March, may be found here, in "The Independent" dated the 14th February.
The review is by Justin Lewis.

"Overall, the available evidence on the BBC centre of gravity does not suggest a leftist tilt. On the contrary, its dependence on certain dominant institutions – notably in the business world and the national print media – would appear to push it the other way."

Thanks to Paul Lewis (of Radio Four's Moneybox) for the links.
