Public service broadcasting: is this the road-map?

The UK broadcasting regulator Ofcom has published its long-awaited review of public service broadcasting in Britain. It is the start of a process with recommendations rather than decisions, but it is very important. It will set the agenda for policy in an area of media that has significance beyond these shores. UK broadcasting is unique with its dominance by the world-class publicly-funded organisation the BBC. But anyone interested in public service generally and journalism in particular should read this very informative and thoughtful report. And by the way, well done to Ofcom for presenting it in such an accessible way with facilities for continuous online comment.
