There’s a war on against the BBC. It is under threat as never before. And if we lose it, we won’t get it back.
The BBC is our most important cultural institution, our best-value entertainment provider, and the global face of Britain. It’s our most trusted news source in a world of divisive disinformation. But it is facing relentless attacks by powerful commercial and political enemies, including deep funding cuts – much deeper than most people realise – with imminent further cuts threatened. This book busts the myths about the BBC and shows us how we can save it, before it’s too late.
