What’s actually happening here, according to Rusbridger, is that these powerful media owners and editors – who control the majority right-wing press in Britain – are incensed that they can’t control the broadcast media and the BBC in the same way they do the print media. So they set out to do just that....

It is background but it’s coming to the foreground.

The broadcast media has dissipated as a controlling force but it still influences older viewers and acts as a mythological source of objectivity, which is the reason its such a prized goal. Surfacing some of these networks and bring them into the light is, I hope, useful?
