- Title
Dial the Difference--How and Why BBC Local Radio and Independent Local Radio Developed Different News Services.
- Authors
Rudin, Richard
- Abstract
This article is principally concerned with how and why these 2 types of radio news developed. It discusses the culture, ethos and practices of the 2 services and, in particular, if and how each was influenced by the other. Much of the article is concerned about how the new commercial stations developed practices and styles that were consciously different from, and in some cases in direct opposition to, those at the BBC, both nationally and locally. The article argues that it was the BBC which adopted and integrated commercial radio's style and practices, rather than, as is often supposed, the other way around.
