The BBC has just announced the latest purveyor of TV Licensing half-truths and propaganda.
The announcement, published by the BBC Press Office, reads as follows:
"The BBC has appointed Finn Communications, subject
to contract, to provide TV Licensing public relations locally in the
north of England.
"The
agency will deliver a strategic programme of TV Licensing public
relations under the direction of the BBC, via the media, stakeholders
and social media at a specialist, regional level.
"The contract will commence in April 2014 and run for a maximum term of four years.
"Last
year, the BBC ran a procurement process to appoint agencies across the
UK in six geographical areas. Five agencies were appointed to cover
London and the South East, Wales and the South West, the Midlands,
Scotland and Northern Ireland. It was not possible to appoint in the
north of England and so this element of the procurement was re-run to
complete the network.
"Sian Healey, TV Licensing Head of Policy and
Communications, says: “This procurement has enabled us to recruit the
best PR agency to complete our network of agencies UK-wide, whilst
delivering excellent value for money for licence fee payers. Finn will
have an important part to play in our work to communicate to the public
when they need a licence, and our extensive stakeholder campaign working
with a wide range of organisations, including those specialising in
money advice."
We're looking forward to countering the bullshit that Finn will inevitably now spin on behalf of the BBC.

Be keeping my eye out for the public relations apologies for the way their scummy filth treated their latest victims up North.

Comiserations, Finn Communications. You will learn to drink deep from the poisoned chalice that is TV Licensing PR.
We suspect that you are going to need the "Crisis Management" section from your website on a regular basis from now on.

Surprise surprise, link and page removed already. Can't imagine what people would have been saying about TVL/BBC/crapita.......
Finn will soon learn the price of it's pieces of silver, that the stench of TVL BS sticks and doesn't wash away easily.
Not removed. Still clearly visible.
Also, who is "Veg"?
