Ooh, I was waiting for one of the usual suspects to chip in with "it were fatcher wot dun it". As James Delingpole points out in today's Telegraph, more blame can be placed at the foot of the BBC as "it probably bears greater responsibility than any other institution for Britain's cultural, moral, intellectual and economic decline." The BBC is a far more pernicious organisation than anything Murdoch funds - and we have the joy of a compulsory telly tax to rub our noses in it.
