Hutton Chops

January 30, 2004

It's been a tough week for the Beeb.

The decision was followed by the resignations of two top BBC executives, which in turn triggered massive protests by BBC employees. Bob talks to WBUR's London-based reporter Michael Goldfarb about the fallout from the Hutton report.
