Broadcasters including the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 have written a letter to the Government to ask for protection from online platforms which are “driven by profit, not purpose”.
The statement, also signed by Channel 5, MG Alba (Gaelic Media Service), Welsh language channel S4C, and STV in Scotland, warned that the content put out by streaming platforms “is not subject to the same safeguards and regulatory standards as ours”.
