Had an email this morning from those nice chaps at
38 Degrees asking me to sign a petition about protecting the BBC. I've agreed with most of their stuff over the years, but this seems petulant on their part.
"Programmes like The Voice, Strictly Come Dancing... entertain millions" and apparently the BBC do "important investigative journalism". I don't think reality TV is worth saving and while the news is done objectively, the only investigative stuff I see is on Watchdog. The true value of the Beeb is in it's educational stuff, nature docs and BBC 4 are the only thing I tune in for nowadays. And it looks like BBC 4's going the way of the dodo anyway.
