BBC has now (I'm not sure when) been changed from Government-funded to Publicly-funded (https://twitter.com/bbc https://twitter.com/bbc). I'm not sure knowing that 'funded by' is as important as 'controlled by'. UK politicians from all sides are constantly complaining that the BBC is biased against them - which I guess shows some evidence of not being government controlled.
The Rupert Murdoch media empire (Fox News, Sky, Newspapers around the world) exerts editorial control to help their other business interests and their own editorial agenda. Should their twitter account be labeled "Murdoch Controlled"?
