Well, I suppose many people feel that there is too much TV advertising as it is without the Beeb getting in on the act.
Then there's people who believe the BBC's claim that if the license fee was dropped, the quality of their programs would suffer. Personally, given the drivel that the BBC has released over the past few years, I find this very hard to swallow!

just to play devils advocate, i think that as soon as you give advertisers access to the BBC it will become even more biased than it already is.
I believe there should be a complete overhaul of the media, papers and tv, and it should be run by a cooperative, where the people actually own it.
CO-OP TV AND CO-OP PAPERS!!!
It should act together to meet the common needs and aspirations of its members, sharing ownership and making decisions democratically.

ha, erm wasnt meant to hijack your thread cyco
i'm a bit torn on the TV licence fee as i think the whole media needs to be addressed.
(btw @all: a forum is a perfect example of a cooperative media channel, as everyone has input to the content)

Well, actually the site I'm working on goes into the issue of the TV license much further, as obviously it's not a simple yes / no affair. I just think that the fee has got very expensive in recent years and of course advertising is not the only way that the BBC could get revenue. Pay-per-view maybe?
The main thing that ticks me off is that you are FORCED to have a license if you wish to own TV recieving equipment. It's downright dictatorial in my view!
