[cma-l] BBC local radio cuts?

[Peter Reid]

Hi.

They say one wo/man's crisis is another wo/man's opportunity.  Is there potentially an opportunity in here?:


"BBC local radio is set to be hit hard by the imminent round of cost cutting at the corporation, with hundreds of hours of local programming likely to be axed.

Large swathes of output outside of peaktime programming are expected to be syndicated between neighbouring stations in a bid to cut budgets.

Some insiders fear the strategy – which would see the stations switch to "regional" rather than "local" output across much of the schedule – could be extended to all programmes outside of the breakfast and drivetime shows."

All best,

Peter.
