Abstract
How does this passionate critique of the structure of broadcasting, with its parallels with the radical criticisms of the health service, and its denunciation of traditional definitions of public service as a sham, square with the broadcast output of the time? This chapter will be looking at the practice of broadcasting in the 1970s, and the radical campaigns which challenged and sought to reform it.
