BBC Fleecing the Stupids?
Since all the TV phone-in scandals the BBC has changed its policy on phone voting.
Anyone unlucky enough to see an episode of I'll Do Anything would have seen the warnings not to vote after the lines would close or they would incur charges.
But isn't that a rather strange approach to take? After all, surely the lines could just be closed once voting was over.
Why would the lines continue to stay open for people to register votes that wouldn't count?
Well because the BBC would make money on those and given it has warned people it's ethically sound. Isn't it?
