Well we never used to have a BBC One so not sure how the point is relevant. Of course the country wouldn’t collapse without the News channel, but it’s a question of whether it’s the sort of thing the BBC should offer and at what cost. I guess the other point is if you can make lots of targeted cuts the cost of delivering the service becomes negligible.
I also think it makes sense for simulcasting with BBC One/Two to take place. Because presumably people dip into the news channel independently of the main channels and indeed many places will leave it on all day so it’s targeting a different audience.
