Ever noticed how almost all of BBC Radio Berkshire's jingles often the same thing repeated, often slower the second time?
Is it because they think their listeners are stupid and won't understand it the first time? |

No its simply because they are cheap and simply using BBC monoploy powers to keep other Broadcasters out.

Under their charter, they can essentially do just what they want to anywhere in UK whenever they want. Over the years weasil words have been added - so no one else gets a real look in. Read it and the supporting rules sets and annotations...make a nice break in the Reading Room for a month or two! -------------------- Know your place!

Some of their income is, yes and as a result we have probably the most respected broadcasting organisation in the world as out national broadcaster which is one of the reasons why Murdoch and pals wants us to do away with the licence fee.I don't see what this has to do with repeating everything in their jingles though. |
