Yep! From what he's saying - lotsa people effectively "brought to heel" re presenting their bbc progs and not applying proper scrutiny and challenge to the UK govt and their protagonists or "your job could be on the line". I'm sure that was what Marr was inferring. It's populism in its true form - try to take over the national broadcasting operation and influence it as much as poss with the populist/global Britain ideology. The only good thing that comes out of this story is the fact the bbc is still full of people who will not be compromised or "cowed" by these kinda underhand tactics. But the Tories have got at the hierarchy of the bbc operation all the same.
