Warhol and Poulson

Jeremy Potter

Chapter 8 in Independent Television in Britain, 1989, pp 124-136 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In January 1973 the Authority made two decisions which precipitated causes célèbres. One was to transmit; the other not to transmit. Assent to the showing of a documentary on Andy Warhol was its first decision ever to be challenged in the courts. Rejection of a programme about John Poulson less than a fortnight later called in question television’s investigative function.
