Charter Review

The BBC outlines its position on the Charter Review, Switzerland rejects defunding SRG, and ZDF & ARD announce channel closure.

With the Charter Review underway, we asked fellow public service media to explain why the BBC plays such an important role internationally.

In its BBC Charter Review submission, PMA sets out its vision for a well-funded, independently governed, and democratically resilient BBC.

This edition: Pressures on news media in Argentina and the US, rising threats for international journalists, and BBC World Service's funding.

The results of the organisation's biggest ever listening exercise will play a central part of the BBC’s planning for the future.

The licence fee which funds the BBC will be modestly increased this year, while a further funding review is conducted.
