Synopsis:This report starts with the historical background to the emergence of the two Fourth Channel organisations. Further, there are two central issues to which many of the contributions of the book address themselves: Who are the 'British' in British Broadcasting, and does 'British' effectively mean 'English', 'white' and/or 'male'? The manner in which broadcasters address their audiences is talked about as well as the kind of assumptions that they make about those audiences.
