Trevor Harris: Technically speaking the BBC is not a quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisation, it is an fully-autonomous public corporation by royal charter.
I'm not sure if your suggestion that "the running of broadcasting outside the UK is not" something the BBC should do holds up to history: the BBC World Service has been running since 1932.
To be honest, I have never been a fan of the way that the BBC has been run since Greg Dyke left. It seems to me that the "office class" argument that has been put recently sums it up. BBC officer class enrages people, chief admits - Telegraph
I understand the argument that the BBC needs to pay people in senior positions the going rate for the job. I'm not so naive to think that only people who have their own private income already should be able to do it.
