Re. 6Music

Spoke a bit soon there didn't I?

According to the Times, the BBC Trust will be axing 6Music to forestall bloody incursions into the licence fee, by the future Tory government; either it's just too  much of a minority to be worried over, or it's the case that 6Music is actually eating into the share of commercial radio -  to quote Chris Addison, BBC bashers should "pick a fucking line".


The Trust has yet to decide, but it doesn't hurt to be part of a furore, so wave your hands, add a twitter ribbon, but most of all write a strongly worded letter to the Trust, patiently explaining that most radio stations are so awful that they actually cause ears to bleed; indeed, the first vacuous garbled utterance from Fearn Cotton's mewling twitish mouth makes me want to eat bricks... or pelt her with some. 6Music is quite simply a gem of a station, where interesting people play good music  - amazing how rare that is today, eh?

#save6music, damn.. another hashtag is more popular - #saveBBC6Music. Save it!
