Granada Reports

Haven’t seen Granada in years, but watched this am. Their GMB bulletins are so nicely framed.
Their set up is streets ahead of the other regions. Looks great.

Coronation Street

The QE2 VHS was their honeymoon. Very good feature length episode.

NBC News, MSNBC, ABC News and others from across the pond

Very impressive. Hope that the BBC & ITN have contingency plans & set ups as good as this.

Coronavirus | Television News Coverage



I'm more concerned by the gimmick of the presenter, presenting from home, using what is clearly a proper broadcast set up, and lighting. Unless of course C4's presenters are now fully skilled engineers and lighting directors. I can't believe it doesn't involve several people in there to set it all up?

Perhaps they’re testing for the studio being out of action. Seems sensible.

BBC News (UK) presentation - Reith launch onwards

The BBC is supporting another public service broadcaster, PBS, by producing World News America. It's not spending money supporting a commercial broadcaster, it's supporting another public service broadcaster, and considering how much threat public service broadcasters worldwide are under, I think it's essential that public service broadcasters get together and support each other.

International News Presentation: Past and Present

How have they pulled that off technically? Is there a spare studio in LA and they have been able to pull in additional staff or is it pre recorded?
?

Coronavirus | Television News Coverage

Somewhat surprisingly, I think CNNI's coverage has been far better than most. At the start they did seem overly obsessed by the 'Diamond Princess' ship but they seem much better at analysing and providing context and making the fact clear from fiction..

They weren’t on the ball at the start of this story in Jan. Endless coverage of the Trump impeachment trial on CNNI. Other international news channels were providing significantly better coverage. CNNI had a strap up.

Get used to it. This is the biggest story of the year.

CNN International & Domestic

Bizarre desk. A real barrier/wall between the anchor and the viewer. Set looks great though.

Victoria Derbyshire (the programme) - now with added Reith

I find the begging for a reprieve slightly awkward. TV shows get axed. New shows get commissioned. That’s TV.
