[cma-l] BBC Trust service review: Music Radio Consultation

[Ian Hickling]

The main point I made in my response is that the general impression gained out here is that the BBC is not interested in consumer feedback.Whenever a point is made there is quickly a strong defence of the status quo and very rarely a climb-down, change of approach or apology.The BBC needs to appreciate the intelligence of the decision-makers who comprise the most influential part of its audience.
It has a duty to educate - as well as inform and entertain.In some areas it appears to be promoting poor use of English in particular - instead of adhering to its traditional standards.

Subject: [cma-l] BBC Trust service review: Music Radio Consultation

** NB This is a BBC Consultation forwarded to the list for information purposes **
Overview
Why are we doing this consultation?


The BBC Trust works on behalf of licence 
fee payers to ensure that the BBC provides high quality services and 
good value for everyone in the UK. One of the ways we do this is by 
carrying out an in-depth review of each of the BBC's services at least 
once every 5 years.

The purpose of this consultation is to 
get your views on some of the BBC’s network radio services, specifically
 those that provide music: Radio 1, 1Xtra, Radio 2, Radio 3, 6 Music and
 Asian Network. What do you like, what do you dislike and what should 
the BBC do to make these radio services better for you? You will see 
that for some questions we will ask you to think about the speech 
programmes on these services too.

We want views from as many people as we 
can from across the United Kingdom, and people from a wide variety of 
ages, and social, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds.

You can read the terms of reference for the consultation at the link below.


How to take part in the consultation


You will be asked a series of questions about BBC’s music radio 
services. The first section asks you about your overall impression of 
the BBC’s music radio services and is then followed by questions on each
 individual service. Finally, we ask you about what kind of music you 
like and how you listen to the radio. You can answer about as many or as
 few radio stations as you wish.
