'This is a notable book and one that should be read by anyone with an authentic interest in television, broadcast regulation and the business of media. It advances a reconsideration of the roles and contributions of private television and will generate candid discussion that overcomes the constrained consideration of the past.' - Robert G. Picard, International Journal of Digital Television 5.1 (2014)
