Last chance to say your piece
A little while ago I pointed out that the DAB radio station BBC 6 Music was in danger of being shutdown [read that blog here]. Hopefully, you followed my advice and wrote to the BBC asking them WTF they thought they were doing. Hopefully, you filled out the petitions and the BBC’s consultation thing.
If you didn’t then SHAME ON YOU! Nah, I’m only joking, peeps are lazy, I get it. But in all seriousness, tomorrow is the very last day you can do all this. So, please, make that last stand count.
For non-UK readers: you are probably thinking that this has absolutely no impact on you whatsoever. Well, you’d be wrong about that. 6 Music is listened to all around the globe because it’s just that fucking good (that and the fact the iplayer for BBC music radio isn’t restricted to the UK). It’s actually just a great everyday station for those with eclectic music tastes. Go on, give it a whirl!
One just has to to hope that enough people made their voices heard and that the listener increase the station has had, Jarvis picking up a Sony, Adam Buxton returning to the airwaves and the media furor surrounding the proposed closure will have an impact. Fingers crossed eh.
