Media folk's Swansea chance to mull over BBC

Media folk are encouraged to pop into Swansea University next week.
February 8 brings a little teatime treat - an open-to-all presentation by one of the UK's most respected broadcasting academics
And Andrew Crisell's ever-topical subject for Swansea will be the BBC and how it may evolve.
The lecturer is professor of broadcasting at Sunderland University. He is the author of three books on broadcasting, editor of another and contributor to many.
Other roles have included editorial board membership of the Radio Journal and the Journal of Media Business Studies.
He arrives in Swansea Bay with the BBC under more scrutiny than ever, with concerns including everything from its local news coverage to its top talent's multi-million pound pay.
So well done to the Uni's Research Institute for Arts and Humanities. It's they who've brought Crisell here and it's they who are promoting this public lecture, entitles Auntie’s looking sickly: the last days of public service broadcasting.
It's in the Wallace Building, the large place to the left of the Uni's main entrance drive.
Admission's free and everyone's welcome. Get there by 5.15 pm to enjoy refreshments.
