'BBC warned George Osborne it would have to axe BBC2 and BBC4 due to cuts' | Media | The Guardian

The BBC warned George Osborne it would have to close BBC2 and BBC4 if the government did not provide extra funds to offset the cost of free TV licences for the over-75s.
The corporation told the chancellor that the £750m hole in its finances would also force it to cut all of its local radio stations and radio news for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, according to a forthcoming book on the BBC.
