...regulars at the rickety Stonebridge Road stadium welcome their numerous new owners, any more than if a Russian or American billionaire had swooped in as at some Premier League clubs - after all, they didn't vote for democracy. One posting on BBC Radio 5 Live's 606 online forum, opines that non-league fans, "don't care about the Premier League or winning the FA Cup. It's about being involved in the community. MyFC doesn't seem to understand that. We are just a small club in Kent, and that is OK with us." At worst that...
...imagine the near impossibility of culling from a mountain of great photos the one image that reveals the essence of a harrowing story that took days to convey in newspapers and on radio and TV. But the cover picture of a lone firefighter kneeling to check a fire-hose connection against the background of a tree erupting in a ball of flame summed up Californians' frustration and helplessness.

Byford concedes that BBC swarms at news events can seem "incoherent and duplicative." Plans to fuse TV, radio and online newsrooms and cut up to 490 jobs "should have been done earlier," says Byford.

Despite the Beckett estate’s reputation for opposing all changes to the playwright’s works, Scanlan obtained unique permission to “jump genres” as well...
Pretend you’re a ratings company. Your main problem? Determining how many people are listening to a radio station in any given geographic area. This used to be done the old fashioned way, with paper diaries. Arbitron, the dominant ratings-determining company, passes out between one and four thousand paper surveys in a given market. People then judge the stations they’ve listened to recently, send their surveys back to Arbitron, and let them compile the data to send to radio stations. Stations then shell out a meager $40,000 for the complete results...
