Message | Just because it is State owned, dont mean it is bias. The BBC is unbias and it produces great standards of drama, comedy and other stuff, it should not just be for education and information, but enteratainment too. They will be just as unbias as the BBC and just as free from state interference as the BBC is, maybe an independent panal, form people across the political spectrum can run them,. |

Message | Um, so basically you want a nation ran communist-style, yet you are using an example from a capitalist nation. And besides, we can have something like the BBC since we subsided a T.V. station for INFORMATIONAL purposes. |
