Reader’s comment: Youth shun the Beeb

In response to David Keighley: Welcome to the Fiona Bruce Remainer Show, Cassandra wrote:

The BBC is on the skids. According to the Ofcom report:

‘Audiences are continuing to shift away from live, scheduled programmes to consuming on-demand and online content, increasingly on portable devices. This shift is being led by younger audiences. More than half of 16-34-year-olds’ viewing across all devices is of non-broadcast content, including almost an hour per day of YouTube. Similar shifts are seen in audio listening.’

Sixty-eight per cent of those who do view are satisfied with BBC TV. Which means that nearly a third aren’t.
