    Friday 16 November 2012, 09:38

    Roger Bolton Roger Bolton

    Am I the only BBC presenter who hasn't expressed his view about the present crisis at the BBC?

    Perhaps I should join some of my colleagues on Twitter so that you can enjoy my immediate, uninformed, and prejudiced response to events about which I know little. Actually I do have some understanding...

  16. Feedback: The future of digital radio

    Friday 9 November 2012, 09:15

    Roger Bolton Roger Bolton

    I live in Hertfordshire, in the Chiltern Hills, less than 30 miles from London . This is hardly the back of beyond, and you would not think that hills barely 500ft high would prove an impenetrable barrier to a digital signal, but that seems to be the reality in parts of my village, though not where...

    Roger Bolton Roger Bolton

    It is becoming pretty clear that the late Jimmy Savile was very lucky not to spend his last years in prison.

    If he had, how should he have been treated by a radio reporter?

    With understanding or with condemnation or neutrally?

    In Feedback this week we talked to the producers of two different radio...

  19. Feedback: Reporting from Whitehall and Westminster

    Friday 19 October 2012, 12:43

    Roger Bolton Roger Bolton

    It was bliss being a young BBC political producer in the 1970s.

    The country wasn't having such a good time, what with strikes, the three day week, bombs going off, the oil price shock, and the cold war still going on.

    The political parties were also split, spin doctors were in their infancy and...

    Roger Bolton Roger Bolton

    "Feedback - The programme in which BBC managers explain why they are always right about everything".
