Ответ:

4. У BBC два телевизионных  канала. На ВВС 2 больше серьёзных  программ и сенсационных новостей. IBA несёт ответственность за наблюдение  за независимыми телевизионными компаниями, которые транслируют собственные программы и те, которые они купили у других областей. Каждые 15-20 минут происходит перерыв на рекламу. ВВС получает доход от правительства, а частные компании, контролируемые IBA, зарабатывают деньги на рекламе. В целом, люди считают, что программы, предлагаемые британским телевидением, имеют очень высокие стандарты. Однако некоторые начинают беспокоиться о количестве насилия на телевидении и влияние его на молодых людей.

6. Новые технологии дали  возможность зрителям получить  гораздо больше программ на  домашнем телевизоре через спутниковое  телевидение. В 1990-ых британское телевидение и радио ждут крупные изменения.
