Description
Delving into the recent history of the BBC, once thought of as the last bastion of British paternalism, this book explores the truth behind accusations that the appointment of Sir Marmaduke Hussey as Chairman in 1986 and, more recently, the rise of John Birt to the post of Director-General, have created a climate of fear within the corporation and a rising tide of criticism from outside.ISBN:9780749316624
