First off, the gub’mnt shouldn’t be in the BBC business. Relative degrees of censorship are still censorship and not free speech.

I completely agree with you about government being in the broadcast business. We have our NPR/PBS here which I adamantly oppose receiving any government funding whatsoever. They can express whatever views they want as long as I do not have to pay for their soap box.

But that isn't the issue and is purely tangential.
