Article Abstract:

There has been a gradual shift at ITV away from serious current affairs programming.

This development raises doubts about the future purpose of the Independent Television Commission. It now appears that the traditions of ITV, which has sought to be regarded as a public-service broadcaster, are being undermined by those who control it.
