Public Service Broadcasting in a digital age

On the 29 November, ITV Chairman, Sir Peter Bazalgette spoke to The Voice of the Listener and Viewer Autumn Conference.

He ends his speech with:-

".... PSB has to be nurtured with new ideas, fresh regulations and novel alliances. And lest, despite my arguments, you still think there’s something old-fashioned about PSB, I have one more killer fact. If you haven’t heard them, let me enlighten you that there’s now a band called Public Service Broadcasting. And their first album, which actually entered the charts, was called ‘Inform – Educate - Entertain’. You can’t get much cooler than that."
