not entirely and not for long.

What's this a reference to? Is the BBC allowed to take outside funding?

not entirely means that over a third of its revenues comes from private/commercial sources.

not for long means that their public funding is going to end in 2027 and that's when a majority of their revenue will switch to private/commercial sources and they will become like any other form of legacy media.
