Paul Goldsmith: Media and Communications Minister on the Government scrapping the Broadcasting Standards Authority

The Broadcasting Standards Authority's not long for this world, with Media and Communications Minister Paul Goldsmith announcing today it'll be scrapped. He says the body to monitor TV and radio is past its use-by date - and media can self-regulate using the Media Council.  No time-frame's set, but legislation will be drafted in coming months. Goldsmith says times have changed.  "The world's moved on and it's obvious to everybody how we get our information has changed dramatically, and it was sort of looking after a thin slice of broadcasting, so it no longer made sense."  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
