What the hell are you talking about. It's nothing like the same comparison. Unless you have a copy of Steve Wright's contract obligations you have no idea what parts of his own program he directly has influence upon. Even if he doesn't choose his own music - so what? The money earned by him is derived from how much people are prepared to pay for his talent. Brad Pitt and George Clooney don't write and produce the movie that they get paid to star in do they? Doesn't stop the paying public from wanting to see THEM not some behind the scenes staff does it. As for the rest of your guff about duplication - you completely fail to appreciate it us viewers and listeners that want that. You can't have regional programs and regional radio stations presented by a single person in a single location. Commercial stations are already tying that "networked" way of delivery and received much criticism for it from us very public. As a perfect example our own Hallam FM which only appears to have 1 to 2 shows a week which are actually broadcast from their Sheffield studio. The rest of the schedule is streamed in from Manchester or London or anywhere else where they feel convenient. Hardly great local content is it? Look at the fuss created over Look North and the supposed bias between the amount of Leeds stories vs Sheffield ones. Are you really trying to say that we would prefer an even more centralised approach to save money? Of course there are multiple presenters for news and weather across the network there has to be - how else do you think it's possible to get forecasts and bulletins delivered across numerous channels at different times and sometimes even in in different languages. It's all about the service that us public expect. We can't have it both ways. Yes of course there can be cuts to be made and I'm sure that this government will put pressure on the BBC to do so. However we have to face facts about whether we want a truly complete public broadcaster as we seem to demand or we lose it and are left with no option but the wholly commercialised and dumbed down ITV network. Let's see how many local radio stations they would be prepared to set up and run, how many religious services and educational programs would they broadcast, how many specialist interest programs do you think they will put on air, how many independent current affairs and consumer programmes do you think they will be prepared to put on air (particularly ones that are freely able to raise criticism of their potential advertisers).... All too easy to criticise until it's too late. am thinking you're a member of the public sector employ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the public sector didn't have to keep on bailing out the failing private sector we might have more money to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The public sector is an essential part of the economy but it wouldn't and couldn't exist without the private sector. The idea that it could bail out the private sector is laughable. It might be unkind to say so, but stripped down to the basics, one is a fountain and the other is a drain.
