Cut the licence fee!

Obviously Sky are not happy having to compete with a taxpayer funded competitor. Who would be? Hence their call for a cut in the licence fee. More to the point, their criticisms of the BBC Trust are spot on. The Trust does nothing at all to control the BBC and simply seems to rubber stamp whatever the DG thinks of.

In a seperate story the BBC takes criticism for keeping too much work in house. Be that as it may, the bit that intrigues us is that the BBC spends 88% of its income on producing content. What, pray, does it do with the other 12%?
