   Is the BBC's licence fee the only source of funding?

   • The licence fee has never been the BBC’s only source of funding. The World Service was funded directly by the government until 2014. Perhaps paradoxically, given their emphasis on the need for independence, senior BBC managers have argued that this system should be reinstated.

   Dec 7, 2022 · The BBC should not move to a purely advertising-funded model, or purely subscription-funded model, or be funded by government grant.
