PODCAST: The BBC, it’s history and origins -- Michael Greenwell speaks with Professor David Miller

Sept. 24, 2009 -- (michaelgreenwell.wordpress.com) -- In this one I speak with Professor David Miller of the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland.

Miller is the author/co-author/editor of several books including “A Century of Spin: How Public Relations Became the cutting Edge of Corporate Power” and “TELL ME LIES. Propaganda and Media Distortion in the Attack on Iraq.” He is also the co-founder of www.spinwatch.org and www.spinprofiles.org. He occasionally appears on the BBC too, including this rather amusing one from Newsnight.

In fact, in this podcast we discuss the BBC, it’s history and origins, how it has been controlled and manipulated by governments and how all this fits into the wider media context.

I hope the production is a little better on this one than the last.
