Delinquent presenters, controversial executive pay-offs, the Jimmy
Savile scandal... The BBC is one of the most successful broadcasters in
the world, but its programme triumphs are often accompanied by
management crises and high-profile resignations. One of the most
respected figures in the broadcasting industry, Roger Mosey has taken
senior roles at the BBC for more than twenty years, including as editor
of Radio 4's Today programme, head of television news and director of
the London 2012 Olympic coverage. Now, in Getting Out Alive, Mosey
reveals the hidden underbelly of the BBC, lifting the lid on the angry
tirades from politicians and spin doctors, the swirling accusations of
bias from left and right alike, and the perils of provoking Margaret
Thatcher. Along the way, this remarkable memoir charts the pleasures and
pitfalls of life at the top of an organisation that is variously held
up as a treasured British institution and cast down as a lumbering,
out-of-control behemoth. Engaging, candid and very funny, Getting Out
Alive is a true insider account of how the BBC works, why it succeeds
and where it falls down.
