BBC3 move to online-only, fears over future of traditional broadcasting and corporation being too ‘overtly political’ among public’s concerns, study finds. This article is explaining if BBC is too over political or if they have to much for entertainment. This explains as to the point of where BBC3 move on-line that it has now made the fears as to the reason of whether there audience may be going as its a free broadcaster and it would mean that if they show more of the entertainment side they would have to change to a paying broadcaster. This would be an issue as for their viewers who don't pay for any of the subscription would  mean that they would have to pay for one in the future as to the content that BBC does.

1. Some respondents also fear that poorer people (particularly children) and those in rural communities who do not have internet access at home will also miss out on online content.”

2. Some older people feel excluded’
On the issue of older members of the audience, the document notes: “Generally, older people express concerns at what they see as the prioritisation of online content over traditional broadcasting.

3. n the World Service, the report observed: “The most controversial aspect of the service is how it is funded and a fairly common view is it should continue to be funded by the British government, rather than licence fee payers.”

In my opinion BBC need to stay as a public service broadcaster as to the TV license paying it off. This is a problem for the BBC as they're having reports of having too much entertainment then too much political news. they should be freely open on what to do. BBC’s own proposals to create a “British, bold and creative” broadcaster. This was mean to show that BBC are a form of Entertainment for everyone in Britain. While the trust initially suggested that licence fee payers were supportive of the management’s plans, further analysis of the consultation showed many had widespread concerns on a range of issues. This could mean that BBC viewers may decrease.
