Save BBC 6 Music
Dear BBC Trust,
I firmly believe that BBC Radio 6 uphold the core mission of the BBC.
The BBC has one mission: to inform, educate and entertain audiences with programmes and services of high quality, originality and value. It strives to fulfil this mission not to further any political or commercial interest
BBC 6 Music's programming since its launch has provided this service via a wide range of musical tastes and I believe its original slogan “Closer To The Music That Matters” still holds true, however there are clearly other BBC radio stations that are clearly driven by commercial interest and have more listeners just due to the slow penetration of DAB in cars and in general.
The BBC states:-
Where actual or potential market impact outweighs public value, the BBC should leave space clear for others.
I would therefore suggest the BBC trust asks Mr Thompson to look again at the BBC radio stations and see which ones really do not fit the BBC core mission if he wishes to make savings and serve the BBC's mission.
