We the TV license payers, listeners and supporters of Historian Professor Carl Chinn M.B.E. , are shocked and appalled at the insensitivity of the way the BBC-WM radio went about his dismissal. They have failed to consult with its license payers and have treated its listeners with contempt in the interests of the hangers on at the BBC who should have gone long before him!.
The BBC have denied us license payers the right to choose who we should listen to. They must stand condemned for their outrageous actions.
I call on all supporters to boycott radio W.M. until our demand is met that Historian Professor Carl Chinn M.B.E. be reinstated forthwith and call upon the west midland radio station manager to resign.
Please sign this petition. Thank you.
I have been reading through the comments all afternoon and honestly the level of frustration everyone feels about how they dumped Carl really matches my own vibe right now. It just feels like they are totally ignoring the people who actually pay for the service while they do whatever they want behind closed doors. I am planning on putting together a formal letter to the station management because silence is not an option when they treat us with such blatant disrespect.

I honestly did not think this would gain this much steam when I first hit publish on my laptop in the kitchen. It is wild to see how many people actually care about losing such a genuine voice on the airwaves because the people upstairs clearly have no idea what we want to hear. Keep talking about this because I think they are starting to feel the heat from the boycott.
