Andy Kershaw

[Ed Blackmore]

Dear Andy,

To quote the 'Gaurdian'
<<
In 15 years at the station, Kershaw never ceased to
seek out and promote new talent from all over the world. Under the
dead hand of Parfitt, however, the rest of Radio 1 has become rigidly
formulaic and narrow-minded, with a daytime menu of boy-bands and
girl-bands to attract the pre-pubescents, followed in the evenings by
"indie sounds", hardcore hip-hop and dance music. 
>>

This is just one of dozens of newspaper columns regarding Kershaw 
over the last year. How can you be allowed to act so freely against 
such strong public feeling, isn't the BBC a public owned corporation.

Is the mention of Radio's 2-4 in you're standard reply email a 
suggestion that one of these stations might be taking Andy up, or an 
attempt to distill anger by hiding behind half promises?
