Formerly Objective BBC to be Gutted

"BBC chief warns that [5.000] job cuts are only the beginning "

The BBC director general, Mark Thompson, has admitted that the BBC will face its "biggest challenge" yet in maintaining its relevance over the next decade. Surely, the cutting of 5.000 positions as a preliminary measure will bring about the destruction of the objectivity, integrity, originality, and therefore, the relevance of the network.

Separately, the wartime director Thompson has recommited the BBC to religious broadcasting.

Farewell, old friend.
