[Swprograms] Auntie under the knife...

[Lee Reynolds <kd1sq@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

...the cuts at the BBC have nothing to do with delivering services to an 
audience or the preservation of a name that money couldn't buy - it merely 
has to do with applying commercial imperatives to a non-commercial 
organization and, also, the chance to make a quick buck by cutting Auntie 
into pieces and selling them off.

Doing that to organizations that are (or were) nationalized has proven to 
be immensely lucrative to the money men - think of Thatcher's England or 
Yeltsin's Russia.

Nothing personal, just that some of the bigger predators in our 
civilization scent yet another profit to be made.

Why' else do you think that upper management from the commercial world was 
allowed in to become BBC upper management?

Not to worry - once everything that can be sold off has been, the carcass 
will be thrown back to the taxpayers to refinance and fatten up again.
