Bite-Sized Books has just published John Mair’s latest edited book: BBC at 100 – Will it Survive?

With the troubled atmosphere surrounding the nation’s Broadcasting House growing thicker by the day, the attacks on the Corporation continue to stack up from all sides. Mair and others ask if the new Director General, Tim Davie, can steer the Corporation into clear waters for good.

John Mair says, “This is the fourth Bite Sized BBC in Peril book I have edited in the last fifteen months. Initially the title was speculative – I now think it’s real. The BBC faces an existential crisis. It must fight for its very purpose after 100 years of making great programmes on TV, Radio and Online. The clarion call is dramatic, but I sense with the enemies new and old massing, there is a mortal danger to the greatest cultural invention of the twentieth century. I hope I’m wrong. This book allows the arguments to play. Do buy it, do read it, do let your voice be heard.”
