I agree. An individual or a very close-knit
team - even with a team there has to be
someone in charge.<br>
<br>
It’s very difficult, and I suspect some
stations decay because the a) one person
gets fed up or b) an alternative leader
tries to take over.<br>
<br>
>From my own experience I had competition
- a small group who wanted to turn the
station into a money-making machine. I’d b
been at it for six years, and we had 65
volunteers, and it was doing well enough. I
didn’t fight to retain control - but the
money-makers had left within a month,
quickly realising they couldn’t make cash.
The station has struggled ever since (IMHO).
It’s coming up to 10 years old, not sure of
Ofcom are interested enough to notice that
it is still trying to be commercial, has
very few presenters, whose egos play the
music they like, and who have never
understood what community meant.<br>
<br>
I’m concerned now that the BBC seem to have
won the right to control - and are playing
the ‘big boss’. That’s a great pity because
potentially the community broadcasters have
so much more to offer than the Beeb will
ever realise.<br>
<br>
That’s another story.<br>
