Title: UK TV with no BBC?
Post by Administrator on Jul 16^th, 2015, 8:53pm

"The Conversation" is funded predominantly by over 40 universities and other trusts and foundations.

Articles are written by authors who have no connection with (in this case) The BBC.

"Hard Evidence: What would TV look like without The BBC?"

The article discusses the future of UK without the presence of The BBC.
Investment in programmes, the effect on other broadcasters, subscriptions etc.

The article is here.

"...........our research suggests that cutting the BBC licence fee would reduce consumer choice and value for money, as well as greatly damaging UK programme producers."
