If the BBC required senior management to possess practical perl prowess,
ITV would surely demand rock'n'roll, drag'n'plop PowerPoint skilz, so
they can re-spiffify the sales demo of their attention-harvesting plans
before Big Ad notices just how ensweatened ITV's brow has become.

Sink or swim. ITV has falling advertising revenues, due to this new
fangled Internet thingy, which I hear is all the rage. Along hundred
of available broadcast TV channels.
Compare and contrast the annual revenue stream for the BBC or ITV
with the "value" (in cash or stock) of YouTube?
Reality? Sure - bucket loads...
