Not saying this is untrue but do you have a cite for it?

The last I was aware on this issue was:

http://www.channel4.com/news/articles/arts_entertainment/media/bbc+may+have+to+share+licence+fee/1986352

10 Apr 2008:
"An Ofcom report says the BBC may have to give some of its licence
fee to the commercial broadcasters Channel 4, ITV and Channel 5."

i.e. they don't already.

Even if they did take this money, I don't see how this would
obligate them to do anything but what it is agreed to be used for.

Cheers,
Andy
