Steve Batkin - Monday. 8.8.2016: The Broadcasting Scandal. Above image is Lord and Lady Reading: family members were accused of being corrupt because of a Government contract awarded to the Marconi Company (Lord Reading's brother was the managing director of the Marconi Company); insider trading is the trading of a public company's stock by individuals with access to non-public information about the company. Britain's first public broadcast was from the Marconi Company factory in 1920 and this led to the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in 1923: unfortunately we've had corruption linked to broadcasting ever since!
