Public & Private Ownership

Public Ownership
Public ownership is the ownership by a public body representing society, government, state power or some other political body. Like the BBC, the TV licence is payed by the public so it makes it owned by the public

Private Ownership
Being owned by a private individual or organization, rather than by the state or a public body. Other media companies dont get funded by the TV licence so they have to pay for the company them selves.
