Other proposals being considered as part of strategic review include axing Asian Network, placing cap on sports rights outlay, selling off BBC magazines and cutting film and TV show acquisition budget

....

The BBC's web output could be cut in half, with online staff numbers and budgets to be slashed by 25% following director general Mark Thompson's strategic review of the corporation's scope and activities.


Have you seen the state of their news pages recently? Really bad spelling and grammar mistakes, cut and paste jobs... The worst part for me is the tendency to descibe people and things in the style of The Sun :shock:
