10/15 assignment

The financial crisis has affected all areas of life. So naturally you would think that news agencies would scale back in their reporting staff. However, the BBC shows no intention of cutting back on their reporting. In fact they have taken it upon themselves to launch campaigns in remote regions of India, Africa, the Middle East. the goal is to "strive to ensure that the poorest and most remote communities have a voice in a world that is becoming increasingly connected" says BBC's director of the world service trust Stephen King. it is through creativity that the world service trust has been able to reach rural communities. Although time will tell, the organization will continue its outreach to allow people the chance to be informed.
