good idea. This seems to be the prevailing opinion that is being broadcast on all channels.

For those who earn their revenue through subscriptions like Amazon Prime and Netflix it just makes no sense to run a broadcasting organisation that spends shedloads of money on current affair programmes, news presenters, news teams and researchers who work away to create a short 2-3minute bit of information and then spend anoth 5-10 minutes talking about it, getting the general public to comment. 15 minutes tops and the product is almost valueless.

for the BBC they must know that there is a big change in how TV programmes are delivered to the marketplace. I think the BBC is a bit like The Courier. The demographics are predominantly older people who are fairly set in their ways. Breakfast News, morning paper, evening news etc. They are not interested in 24hour news.

If the future for the printed press is looking like the same future for the BBC then there will be fewer licence payers and that trend is probably very well developed.

Just interested in how this will play out because there have been quite vociferous criticism of MSM and how they deliver an agenda which may not be the whole story.
