Criticism
BBC Radio Cornwall has been criticised for its lack of Cornish accents amongst its presenters. This is in contrast to the rest of the UK where local accents are featured prominently in local radio.
Radio Cornwall has also been criticised for seeming to overuse the word "county" to describe Cornwall. Some people take the view that Cornwall is not a County of England and that the BBC should refer to Cornwall as a Duchy instead. It is claimed that many do not listen to Radio Cornwall because they find it offensive.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
“... criticism ... makes very little dent upon me, unless I think there is some real justification and something should be done.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
