BBC Monitoring: Summary of World Broadcasts: Recognized as one of the most important historical archives ever assembled, this digital collection offers nearly 70,000 multi-page reports from 1939 to 2001. Scholars and students can gain vital 20th century background and context for interpreting the complexity of today's global events. BBC M SWB is one of our two OSINT (Open-Source INTelligence) sources. BBC M SWB acts as an important foundational record of world history with first-hand, real-time coverage of 20th-century people, places, and global events. It is an essential resource for researchers in a wide variety of disciplines, including history, political science, government, economics, social and cultural studies, and international studies. Think of this as providing the very first ‘draft’ of history from where the history that we know (or written), was derived from – a primary resource.
