<p class="yiv23932143MsoNormal" style=""><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">How many radio
stations carry a top of the hour news service? As far as I know there are
just two providers of radio news in the
UK , one is the BBC the other is
IRN (Sky News Desk).</span></font></p>

debatable as to if it is ‘sponsored’ and not permitted within the

<p class="yiv23932143MsoNormal" style=""><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">On TV we have
Russia Today, al jazeera, Press TV and others. Some would say these services
cover the news in a certain way but responsible viewers take a view on the
content of such services and form an opinion. If News International were to
take control of BskyB, viewers (and Listeners) can make a choice. </span></font></p>

<p class="yiv23932143MsoNormal" style=""><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sounds to me
like it is yet another opportunity for the sector to use to its advantage and
increase its contribution to the democratic process.</span></font></p>

<p class="yiv23932143MsoNormal" style=""><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">My original
point is that if ownership of BskyB were to change hands then I am sure the
Government would be looking to do deals with NI both above and below the
line. To get his way Murdoch will no doubt do a deal for the Sun to support
the tories at the next election and hand over millions to DCMS project funds.
Small fry compared to the billions the deal will make for him.</span></font></p>

millions does the sector need over the next five years?</span></font></p>
