BBC accused of being too London based

A report out today will claim that the BBC is failing in its commitment to licence payers by focusing too much on London based news according to this morning's Telegraph

According to the paper

The strongly-worded study, commissioned by the BBC's governing body, will accuse the corporation's national news and current affairs programmes of ignoring events in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
It will say that viewers outside of London are getting a second-class service because news bulletins such as the Six and Ten O' Clock News do not provide sufficient coverage of events outside of the South-East
