The BBC plans to lock up your Grandparents because they're poor.
Yep, over 75's will soon be losing their free TV licences and will be required to stump up the fee. There's a way to claim it still but it doesn't apply to millions of older viewers as the Beeb aims to leverage the fact that its average viewer age is 60, charging its biggest and most loyal audience.
Very simple jumping point, should the Beeb have cut services and channels to maintain free licenses for the elderly and what should be done about the future of the BBC when the introduction of advertising and the abolishment of the licence fee increasingly becomes closer to inevitable?
