Did you JUST fall off the turnip truck?

When TV first started showing news back before you were born, they did 
it as a public service and didn't even expect to make any money on it. 
But then they noticed that advertisers were willing to pay big bucks for 
ads on the news. That was the point at which their priorities changed.

The BBC on the other hand has no ads and gets its money strictly from 
the licence fee that Brits pay. In other words, they have an entirely 
different business model and entirely different priorities.

Your complaint is that apples aren't the same as oranges. Most of us 
already know that.
