    Retreat on BBC local radio cuts should signal advance for local media policy

    Distant bugles sound impending retreat. It’s “not out of the question” that the BBC will relent on cutting 280 jobs and £15m a year out of local radio budgets, according to its chief operating officer.

MPs, of course, are formidable allies in such a cause, for MPs have [...]
