The editor's week (June 24th) mentions that the BBC has "advantages not afforded to the rest of us" such as live streaming of world cup football over the web. Still, the Guardian had 200,000 downloads of their World Cup podcast. Could be more of course if the BBC was banned for putting football free to view on TV. More disturbingly she writes today about the "poisonously horrible" linking of BBC strategy with "anytime, anyplace, anywhere". Apparently the BBC is shifting from a "UK-focused public-service broadcaster to an international multi-platform media brand." I think the spin here is that other media organisations might accept some public-service defence for BBC activity in the UK but claim any international space as their own. In my view this is foolish. Most web stats show the UK as only of marginal significance. There is only one UK brand that stands a chance. That brand is the BBC. And it is a public service, in my honest opinion. Turn over the page and you get a report that "commercial rivals" object to the BBC rethinking their service for 12 to 16 year olds. They want to add a mix of media to Radio One. Apparently this market should be off limits for the BBC. What nonsense. Emily Bell has previously used the word "horrible" about the term "citizen journalism", hardly a threat to the Guardian on the same scale as the "poisonously horrible" anywhere anytime anyplace BBC. Or so you might think. I don't know. What do you think, Jeff? Could it be the term "citizen"? Maybe we don't really know what a citizen is in the UK. We are subjects after all. The royal prerogative is well supported by our Labour prime minister. Jeff, could you have a few words on the theme of "what is a citizen?" ready for your next visit to the UK? Or put something in draft in the blog? Or show a few links to something previous? I think once that was sorted out it could get easier to understand the special position of public service broadcasting.
