Ben Okri, novelist.
"The BBC is more than just a mirror of our society, it's a choice about where we want to go, and who we want to be. I do miss some of the old aspects. Perhaps it's time to blend the old with the new. Mix the educative BBC with the one that recognises the energy and diversity of white, Asian and black contemporary culture across the class divide."
Diane Abbott, MP for Hackney North and Stoke Newington.
"I'm a big Radio 4 consumer, as was my mother before me, and she certainly wasn't white or middle class. I was brought up on the Home Service. She and I listened to it all the time. Programmes like Any Questions were a real favourite. I don't think our family were unique in that at all. I think it's dangerous to assume that because people aren't white and middle class they don't listen to Radio 4."
Jilly Cooper, novelist.
"I don't know whether the BBC is dumbing down or not, but this is a fatuous, ridiculous statement. I imagine Asian teenagers, like all other teenagers, have much more fun going out with their friends than watching telly."
Sir Paul Fox, former controller BBC1 and BBC managing director.
"If you want an indication of what the BBC is all about now, you only have to look at the treatment of Panorama. What they have done is truly appalling. To put that programme out late on a Sunday night and reduce the number of editions. It would have been better to put the horse down."
Tim Yeo, shadow secretary of state for culture, media and sport.
"If it is 'white, middle-class southerners' who are the main consumers of the BBC's public service programming, and the group most interested in it, then I cannot understand why they should not be entitled to express their views and exercise an influence over the programmes that interest them. I should have thought that in the current culture of New Labour white, middle-class southerners were more a group in danger of being ignored."
Jocelyn Hay, Voice of Listener and Viewer.
"The BBC's mistake in recent years, and it may be recovering from this, was chasing maximum audiences at the expense of quality. Successive Governments, starting with Mrs Thatcher's, demanded it, in return for maintaining the universal licence fee. The BBC should remember the words of a former chairman, that the aim was 'to make programmes popular, and popular programmes good.' Pandering to the lowest common denominator is, apart from anything else, patronising."
Beryl Bainbridge, novelist.
"Wasn't the original intention of Reith's BBC to educate people. What is the man saying? That he wants to appeal to the 'ill-bred, ignorant folk of the northern provinces'. The statement is insulting by implication. The government is always saying it is trying to improve education, so why are we being fed on a diet of pap. It's lunacy. As for Asian teenagers, I don't suppose they want to watch serious programmes - not because they are Asians, but because they are teenagers."
Trevor Phillips, journalist, broadcaster and deputy chairman of London Assembly.
"If Gavyn Davies is saying that the middle classes are being super-served by the BBC then he is absolutely right. There is a snobbery here which says that if you have a different understanding of what constitutes taste and rigour from a white, Oxbridge-educated male you are in some way stupid. As for 'dumbing down', I could only invite people to watch the television of 25 or 15 years ago. I look back at some of my own stuff, for which I won Royal Television Society awards, and I am embarrassed. Television is more rigorous, adventurous and interesting than ever it was."
A S Byatt, author and novelist.
"Imagine if Davies had made his remarks about black people or women. White, middle-class southerners are about the only people left who you can attack safely these days. It was an absurdly politically correct thing to say. The BBC are in a Catch-22 they don't seem to have worked out. If they want to attract teenagers they will discover that by the time the teenagers start watching, they are too old to enjoy the diet of sex and violence currently being shown."
Dr Ghayasuddin Siddiqui, leader of Muslim Parliament of Great Britain.
"It is undeniable that the BBC broadly represents and reflects the interests of white, middle class people. Perhaps Asian people don't get value for money from their licence fee. We do not want 'special-interest' programmes, we want the BBC to represent fully the broadness of the modern nation. As we have been saying for some time, and there are people within the BBC beginning to recognise this, it currently does not."

Senior left-hander Stephanie Becker tossed her second career no-hitter as the Mississippi State softball team (27-14, 6-9 SEC) routed arch-rival Ole Miss (21-26, 2-16 SEC), 8-0, in six innings Sunday afternoon at the MSU Softball Stadium. The 15th no-hitter in school history (second in conference play) gave MSU its second-straight sweep against the Rebels and improved the Bulldogs' winning streak in the series to eight games.
"Stephanie was as sharp as a tack today and barely missed anything we called," said Head Coach Vann Stuedeman, who upped her record to a flawless 12-0 against in-state opponents. "She is a gutsy player and was on point today."
Becker threw 77 unhittable pitches in her domination of the Rebels, becoming the fourth pitcher in school history to record multiple no-hitters. The southpaw struck out four and allowed only one baserunner (third-inning walk) in her second complete-game of the season. Becker's no-no also marked the 26th career no-hitter coached by Stuedeman, as well as the 235th career shutout for the dugout general.
"You can't have a no-hitter without great defense, and our defense was awesome today," Becker said. "Everyone had my back as always and Vann called a great game as usual."
Offensively, junior catcher Sam Lenahan went 1-for-1 with two runs, a walk and an RBI, finishing the weekend sweep with a .600 batting average and a .750 on-base percentage. Fellow junior Heidi Shape finished 2-for-3 with a pair of RBIs, giving her 12 RBIs in her last six games against Ole Miss. Redshirt sophomore Julia Echols (1-for-2) also knocked in two, while senior Jessica Cooley (1-for-2, run) and sophomore Erika Gaul (0-for-1) drove in one run each. Junior Jessica Offutt led off for MSU and went 2-for-3 with a run scored.
The Bully Bombers pounded out seven of their eight runs in the first two frames, including a four-run opening inning. Offutt took first base with a leadoff walk and advanced to second when Cooley joined her on the base paths thanks to catcher's interference. With runners on first and second, Stuedeman called for the double steal. Offutt slid in safely at third, but scored when the throw to third rolled into left field. Cooley moved to third on the error and was joined on the corners when Lenahan drew her team-leading 37th walk of the season. Junior Logan Foulks then made it to first on a fielder's choice when Cooley was tagged out at home on a 5-2 putout.
Two runners stood on the bag for redshirt sophomore Briana Bell, who singled up the middle to load the bases. Shape gave MSU its second run of the day with a single to right, driving in Lenahan. The Bulldogs scored their final two runs of the first stanza when Echols hit a two-out single, scoring both Foulks and Bell.
State added three more runs in the second, the first of which came on Cooley's fifth home run of the year. The Birmingham Bomber's solo shot to straightaway center field was followed by Lenahan getting hit by a pitch and advancing to second on an illegal pitch. Foulks walked and Bell singled yet again to put a runner on every base. Just like the first inning, Shape drove in Lenahan with a single. Gaul then pinch hit for senior Shelby Fisher, and proceeded to record her first career RBI with a groundout to shortstop, scoring Foulks.
The game-ending run in the bottom of the sixth came when Lenahan belted a first-pitch offering with no outs to deep right field, allowing speedy freshman Loryn NIchols to tag from third and score for the series-sweeping victory.
Starkville's Team now takes to the road for a non-conference contest at Samford this Tuesday at 6 p.m. For live in-game updates of the game, follow the program on Twitter at @MStateSB.

Women's Tennis
Mississippi State Lady Bulldog tennis (8-13, 2-11 SEC), posted a hard-fought 4-2 victory against the No. 51 ranked Lady Tigers of Missouri (9-12, 2-11 SEC) in the teams' final regular season match Sunday afternoon at the A.J. Pitts Tennis Centre.
Ironically, the two teams will rematch in their next outing, squaring off in the opener of the 2013 SEC Women's Tennis Championship this Wednesday, April 17, at 10 a.m. Mississippi State is hosting the 2013 SEC event April 17-21 at the Pitts Tennis Centre as part of Super Bulldog Weekend. A complete bracket and information on the tournament can be found at www.HailState.com/SECtennis.
Due to inclement weather Sunday, the day's competition began with singles play. Court 4 was the first to finish, as Elisha Gabb of the Lady Tigers defeated Lady Bulldog Petra Ferancova 6-2, 6-2 for an early 1-0 Missouri lead.
Lady Bulldog veteran Alexandra Perper then evened the overall score at 1-1 with an impressive three-set triumph over Rachel Stuhlmann at the No. 2 position. After taking the first set, Perper answered Stuhlmann's second-set response to claim the match convincingly in the third, 6-2, 4-6, 6-1.
MSU true freshman Sarai Flores extended the Maroon and White lead to 2-1 with a closely contested 7-5, 7-5 victory against Missouri's Madison Rhyner on court 6. Flores rallied from a 5-3 deficit in the second set to win four-straight games in a pivotal win for the Lady Bulldogs.Missouri then knotted things again as Maria Christensen downed MSU's Naomi Tran 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 in a three-set war at the No. 3 spot, locking the score at 2-2.
A top spot upset for Lady Bulldog Georgiana Patrasc edged MSU to a 3-2 lead. Patrasc, who was down 4-0 in the first set, roared back to take that set and ultimately upset No. 86 ranked Cierra Gaytan-Leach of Missouri 7-5, 7-5.
The match then came down to the remaining singles action on court 5, where Lady Bulldog Roseline Dion faced Missouri's Alex Clark. Dion took the first set in a dominant 6-2 decision, but was forced into a tiebreaker in the second set after holding a big lead. Dion held strong, however, to take the tiebreaker and notching a 6-2, 7-6(6) triumph to clinch the MSU team victory.
Because the match was clinched in singles competition, doubles play was not contested.
Head coach Daryl Greenan was pleased by his team's performance.
"We fought extremely hard today and it was a great win over a very good Missouri team," said Greenan. "Perper and Patrasc were tough as nails and Sarai did a tremendous job playing within herself. Rosie had a chance to end the match much sooner, but she really dug deep to win the tiebreaker to clinch. It was a very solid effort on every court for us today, and it is a good feeling when that happens. We will face Missouri again in three days right here in the SEC Tournament, and it is going to take a huge effort to come back and beat them again."
Updates for all Lady Bulldog tennis action are available through twitter @mstateWT and through live stats at hailstate.com.
Track and Field
Capturing 19 Top 3 finishes, the Mississippi State track and field team will return home from the Battle on the Bayou with a collection of quality performances.
Highlighted by Nathan Arnett's win in the 400-meter hurdles (51.26), the Bulldogs gained 90 points on the day to finish fifth. Similarly, the MSU women also posted 90 points, placing them in fourth. Both LSU squads claimed team wins at Bernie Moore Track Stadium on Saturday, the men with 140 points and the women with 179.
"The competition was strong in Louisiana," MSU coach Steve Dudley said. "When you compete against that level, it pushes you to compete harder. We had a handful of great performances today."
The 13th-ranked Maroon and White men were led by strong showings in the field, as A.J. Ward long jumped 23-05.50 to boast a second-place finish, followed by teammates Jason Harper and Jarrett Samuels who tied for third after jumping 21-10.50.
Harper's momentum continued as he added points for the Bulldogs, leaping 49-09.00 in the triple jump to finish third.
Later in the day, Marcus Jackson cleared 7-01.00 in the high jump, earning a second-place finish. The junior entered the competition as the second-ranked high jumper in the NCAA.
Freshman Scottie Hearns helped pace the men on the track, finishing right behind Arnett in the 400-meter hurdles, clocking a 51.27.
On the women's side, Jody-Ann Muir and Kanishia Carey posted top speeds for the Lady Bulldogs. Muir's time of 53.25 placed her second in the 400-meter dash, while Carey finished third in the 800-meter run, turning in a 2:11.24.
Freshman pole vaulter Megan Walker garnered a second-place performance after she cleared 12-09.00. Ebony Brinker and Alyssa Hall also saw Top 3 finishes in their respective events. Brinker's 40-08.25 landed her third in the triple jump and Hall cleared 5-07.25 in the high jump.
Dudley's 4x400-meter relay teams earned a pair of third-place finishes as well, as the Lady Bulldog quartet comprised of Muir, Ste'yce McNeil, Brittney Covington and Ocian Archer clocked a 3:40.11. The men's foursome posted a 3:06.86 in the event. Tavaris Tate, Daundre Barnaby, Brandon McBride and Randy Patterson's time on Saturday was just over a second more than their season-best 3:05.35, a time that ranks fifth in the NCAA.
MSU track and field will stay on the road next weekend, traveling to Oxford for the Mississippi Open. For more updates on the Bulldogs, follow the team on Twitter (@msutracksarah).

Lindows has filed a registration statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for an initial public offering of its common stock. Lindows has chosen WR Hambrecht as the offering's lead manager, while Roth Capital Partners will be co-manager.
The offering's proposed maximum aggregate price is $57m. Lindows will use the money it raises to continue developing products and distribution channels, expand sales and marketing activities, increase staff and repay debt obligations of about $10.4m to company founder Michael Robertson. Robertson also serves as the company's chairman and chief executive officer.
Last week, the company changed the name of its operating system from LindowsOS to Linspire as a result of a global legal assault by Microsoft which began in late 2001. Microsoft has sued Lindows over trademark infringement in several countries over the similarity of the Lindows and Windows names.
The registration statement filed with the SEC has yet to become effective.

"I came to tell the world I'm an openly proud gay man. I understand how big this is, it's a big deal. No one has done this before. And it's kind of a nervous process, but I know what I want to be ... I want to be a football player in the NFL."
--- Michael Sam.
"I don't think football is ready for (an openly gay player) just yet. In the coming decade or two, it's going to be acceptable, but at this point in time, it's still a man's-man game. To call somebody a (gay slur) is still so commonplace. It would chemically imbalance an NFL locker room and meeting room."
--- Unnamed NFL player personnel assistant.
Michael Sam is gay, you may have heard this by now.Sam, a 6-2, 255-pound defensive end for the Missouri Tigers, just completed his senior season by being named the co-SEC Defensive Player of the Year.This is the SEC we're talking about. They play some fairly good football in the SEC, so this was no small feat.Sam was the best of the best.He was a consensus All-American and had a huge hand in helping the Tigers go 12-2, win the SEC East, and eventually the Cotton Bowl.Then came Sunday's announcement. This came as a shock to many, but certainly not to all. Sam told his Tiger teammates and coaches in August.It wasn't easy."I was kind of scared," Sam told ESPN. "But they took it great, they rallied around me and supported me. I couldn't have asked for better teammates."One of those teammates was defensive lineman Marvin Foster."Who cares? I think that's what the story should have been," Foster said. "What he was saying is now that everybody knows that I'm gay, I just want to play football."The support for Sam has been nearly universal, especially on campus. At Faurot Field, students added an S-A in the snow before the snow-covered rock M on the grass hill.Great stuff."We're really happy for Michael that he's made the decision to announce this, and we're proud of him and how he represents Mizzou," Tigers coach Gary Pinkel said.ã??"Michael is a great example of just how important it is to be respectful of others. He's taught a lot of people first-hand that it doesn't matter what your background is, or your personal orientation, we're all on the same team and we all support each other."Tom Whelihan echoed those sentiments."If you just asked the players, they don't care," said Whelihan, a kicker who played for the Tigers in the mid 80s. "Even 25 years ago, they didn't care. As long as that guy can help you win, they don't give a rat's behind."But why make this announcement now, just three months before the NFL draft?"I was actually going to wait until I got drafted, and I was going to tell the coach, the owner and the GM about my sexuality," Sam said. "But knowing about how many people already knew, I was afraid it would leak out without me actually owning my truth."I wanted to let the world know, 'Hey, I'm gay,' and let me tell my own story."More great stuff.But how will this affect the football future for Sam, who's been projected as a mid- to late-round pick?There are two takes on this.Obviously, the MU players accepted Sam with open arms --- the team wouldn't have had this degree of success without that acceptance. Because team chemistry is as big a part of winning football as offense, defense and special teams.In other words, it was a non-factor."If Michael doesn't have the support of his teammates like he did this past year," Pinkel said, "I don't think there's any way he has the type of season he put together."Then there's this: Sam was already established as a senior force in the Missouri locker room. The older players had known him for four or five years, the younger players looked up to him.But now, Sam will at the bottom of the pecking order as he enters an NFL locker room, where rookies never have it easy.And he'll enter that locker room as the first openly gay player --- announced prior to retirement --- in NFL history."For some teams, he may not be the right fit, because they don't have the proper locker room leadership and the proper tools in place," ESPN analyst Chris Mortensen said."Is it worth the trouble and distraction for a guy who may be a fifth- or sixth-round pick, or even a seventh-rounder?"NFL locker rooms are not quite as progressive and accepting as other parts of society. They are the ultimate man cave with a bunker mentality, a war mentality, kill or be killed, be the hunter or the hunted.ã??Don't ask, don't tell."I think it will make some guys uncomfortable, because you don't know what you can say, or if you're allowed to joke around with players in a certain way," said ESPN analyst Antonio Pierce, who played nine years in the NFL with the Redskins and Giants."This is all we're talking about, do you want that distraction? Do you want to answer the same questions each and every week, after each and every practice, each and every game? If something bad happens, or guys get in a scuffle, was it because of this?"That's what makes it uncomfortable for a lot of players."In a statement, the NFL said:"We admire Michael Sam's honesty and courage. Michael is a football player, and any player with ability and determination can succeed in the NFL. We look forward to welcoming and supporting Michael Sam in 2014."While opening up, however, did Sam close some doors?"This is an openly guy player who's going to get drafted," ESPN analyst and former NFL coach Herm Edwards said. "There are going to be some teams that look on the board and say: 'We don't want the distraction.'"But somebody's going to draft this kid and the team that he goes to is going to have to deal with it.ã??I would hope that an NFL locker room would handle it like the University of Missouri did ... they handled it very, very well."Indeed. Kudos to Pinkel, his staff and the players for handling this in such a superb way. The old-school guards may not have done the same ... and nobody is more old-school than former Jefferson City Jays coach Pete Adkins.Did he ever have to deal with something like this?"Not to my knowledge," said Adkins, who coached for 44 years and retired with 405 wins. "If we did, I would have been aware of it, I think."Adkins continued."It really wouldn't have mattered to me. If you make a contribution, you help us win and you're good for the team, fine. But if you're going the other direction, you're a distraction and hurt the team, your butt was out of there in a minute."That's the way I always felt about it."As he said, Sam knew this would be a big deal, but he couldn't have imagined it would be THIS big. It's not just the lead story on ESPN, it's the lead story on CNN and basically every other news outlet.This, however, is not life and death. It was a brave, bold moment for Sam, but this isn't a moment equal to those of Jackie Robinson or Rosa Parks.Having said that, and in closing, here are a couple of light-hearted looks at the situation.A friend said: "I think the NFL is getting more progressive. Last year, a guy (Manti Te'o) with a fake, dead girlfriend was drafted in the second round."Tweeted former Vanderbilt quarterback Austyn Carta-Saumel: "If anyone misses watching me play, turn on ESPN, I think I've been sacked by Michael Sam over 150 times in the last few hours."Michael Sam is gay.Live with it.Because he is."I'm not afraid to tell the world who I am," Sam said. "If I work hard and make plays and help a team win games, that's all that should matter."Amen.
