Save the BBC - stop the cuts
This week, the BBC proposed making massive cuts including closing two radio stations, and halving the size of its web site. It's on the brink of surrendering to pressure from commercial rivals, who are lobbying politicians hard to impose even deeper cuts. According to The Times, the proposal is a bid to "shrink" in order to "appease the BBC's rivals.”
The BBC may not have many friends in the rest of the media, but public pressure has saved it before, and can save it again. We'll be delivering our petition against the cuts to the BBC Trust next Tuesday – please sign it now.
