Murdoch empire trying to push corporation to the margins, says politics presenter
- Stephen Moss talks to veteran political interviewer
The BBC is under attack and is in a “dangerous place at the moment”, Andrew Marr has said, amid a crackdown by the corporation’s new director general on staff sharing political views on social media.
In an interview with the Guardian, the presenter of the political BBC flagship programme The Andrew Marr Show said: “The Murdoch empire and others are trying to push us towards a world in which the BBC is pretty marginal and people are getting more of their news and their views from privately funded television channels, as in America.
