Conclusion
The UK’s broadcasting market will only thrive if there is healthy competition, a focus on serving all audiences and respect for the rules. New entrants like GB News provide an alternative to the public service broadcasters. Their offering needs to comply with the spirit of the rules, not stretch them to breaking point. Public service broadcasters, for their part, should reflect on why alternative providers are finding a following and how this relates to the way underserved communities are represented in their own news coverage.
