BBC World Service Radio - JAZZ FOR THE ASKING with Malcolm Laycock

1998 BBC World Service Program

Here is a 1998 BBC World Service programme.

It is for April - November 1998.

BBC on CRI

The BBC news mentions CRI in a current affairs article on "Chinese spying" and not favorably either.

"The radio signal is powerful. On a recent Sunday, listeners in Washington learned about Chinese satellites hurling through space and other achievements of the Beijing government. In contrast the news bulletins, which are produced by China Radio International, tended to strike an ominous tone when reporting on the US economy".

Well, in my opinion the BBC World Service has nothing to be proud of when it comes to objectivity or balanced and even truthful reporting.

Also, it is well documented how the BBC World Service was used to communicate coded messages to British spies (the 1953 Iran coup) and that many BBC World Service correspondent were (and likely are) British secret service operatives on the side.

I have many CRI reception reports on this blog; I also have a huge BBC reception archive and many reception recordings, look for them elsewhere on the blog - use My Radio Archive listing below on the right.
