The BBC may claim that things have changed. However it seems that rather a lot of them earn a great deal of money. See this story. Since the licence payers have to fork out this largesse you would think that they were entitled to know where the money goes. It seems not.
Even worse is that the National Audit Office has no power to investigate the BBC. Is the BBC some critical defence project so secret that its financial dealings must be restricted to a single line item in the budget? No it is a media organisation, its journalists spend thier lives poking their noses into other peoples business and adopt a tone of moral outrage when people try to stop them. Practice what you preach.
Obviously Nomad does not pay for a licence (that is the central premise of this blog) but if he did he would be writing to the BBC to ask them how his money is spent.
