British Goverment to Reshape BBC Governance

Posted by samzenpus on from the and-now-for-something-completely-different dept.

AtariAmarok writes "The British government recently announced plans to reshape how the BBC is governed.. The changes are said to scrap the system that has been in place for 77 years. Some are worried that the independence of the "Beeb" could be compromised, and Conservative lawmakers are worried that it does not allow for enough oversight (leaves it too independent?)."

    I think it may have more to do with using terms like "sexed up." Now that's professional reporting right there. I propose they continue the trend by declaring Al-Zarqawi "the bomb" and Bin Laden the "Bizzle Fi-shizzle".
