Funny thing is...

It becomes obvious after you have added your name. When presented with the page to send the message to friends it says quite clearly that Rupert Murdoch is putting pressure on etc. Now, here is where the irony lies. It mentions then that he is also pressing for them to cut Radio One - A move supported by many including some here.

So, think me cynical if you must, is the BBC cutting the minority stations just to get support? Can we believe anything that ANY media company say? How can we trust the BBC moguls any more than Murdoch? Surely if they were to axe Radio One, they would save enough money to support a dozen minority music channels which is what it should be concentrating on. Maybe they are cutting these channels just to get public sympathy?

Sorry, but the more I think about this, the more I feel I have been manipulated into signing this petition to support one set of media bastards in their war with another set of media bastards. If I could now take my name off, I would.
