Should the TV license fee fund other Public Service Broadcasters?
Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter
The announcement in December 2023 of Samir Shah as the UK government’s preferred candidate for Chair of the BBC has revived a recently neglected question about the funding of the corporation, and of Public Service Broadcasting (PSB) in general. If we are to continue to fund PSB through a flat-rate levy on television users, then is it fair that almost all of this money is spent on sustaining a single public broadcaster? Or could a more competitive model of sharing out the licence fee help create a more dynamic and plural PSB landscape?
