Hold on a min

The BBC have started slipping in adverts on BBC.co.uk???

So the Journos and production staff get paid by us with our rip off fee. Then they coin it in from adverts?

WHEN WILL THEY STOP THIS Stalinesque insanity.

Stand by for more Labore propoganda:

BBC NEWS | Business | UK unemployment continues to fall Oh thats ok then.........

Adverts? Are you viewing from outside the Uk by any chance?

And consequently not paying any license fee whatsoever

No advert on the BBC site from within the UK.

Maybe your work internet is routing via the states or someting silly?

I noticed also that they were not slow to mention Robinson's support for the Sportsview programme more than once. I am sure that the BBC is not allowed to advertise in any way either by the spoken word, signs, or by placement advertising.

I think they are skating on thin ice.

No adverts for me and I am outside the UK.

Not "started slipping", they have been looking at it for ages.

Thanks for the links. I thought that like Amateur Radio, their licence did not permit them to advertise.

The BBC (robbing g*ts) have always advertised on the TV & radio for their own programs - well for as I can remember.
Annoys me that I have to buy a liscene & it keeps going up and the program quality goes down.
