The BBC has been run as a business now and it's absolutely stupid. It was never meant to make a profit that was never really the point. It was supposed to be a public service and a projection of soft power, that seems to have gone out to the window now.

I suspect a lot of the work at the BBC don't actually agree with this, but management don't listen to anyone.
