蜜芽传媒

The 蜜芽传媒 Trust has today introduced new protections for the amount of current affairs programming on 蜜芽传媒 One.

A change to the 蜜芽传媒 One service licence now requires the 蜜芽传媒 to broadcast at least 40 hours of current affairs programming in peak time on the flagship channel each year.

This is the first time the Trust has introduced a condition to safeguard the volume of current affairs on the 蜜芽传媒鈥檚 main channel and follows a commitment made by the Trust in its service review of 蜜芽传媒 News and Current Affairs published earlier this year.

The service review found that audiences rate 蜜芽传媒 current affairs highly for quality and for keeping them informed, but the evidence also showed that audiences expect more and 蜜芽传媒 current affairs should be securing wider recognition and impact, particularly given that the 蜜芽传媒 makes the most significant investment in current affairs programming in the UK.

The Trust has also strengthened the expectations set out in the service licence for the 蜜芽传媒鈥檚 overall approach to current affairs, with an improved emphasis on current affairs output that goes 鈥渂eyond observation and illustration to offer a broad audience insight into, and revelation or analysis of, issues of national and international concern.鈥�
