The only real difference between World Business Report and Business Today is the content - WBR focuses on international business stories, whereas BT is more concerned with business stories from Britain.
When BT launched in 2001, it was completely different - it was hosted by Nils Blythe and occupied the 20.30 time slot. A few years ago, the programme re-launched: it moved to 22.30 and used the on-duty WBR presenters in London and New York. So, it became a UK version of WBR.
If they are getting rid of BT due to cost-cutting, I would be surprised if they replace it with a live edition of WBR. It might just be a repeat of the 21.30 WBR from BBC World.

Interesting pres variations there. We had Dan Corbett in the studio discussing the weather with Louise, and he then gave a brief weather summary out of vision from the right-hand pod. After Louise handed back to Jon, it rolled out to a promo, after which we faded into a countdown from 56s. The countdown was faded out at 48s to join Prime Minister Blair's EU summit news conference at 1759.

WBR will be ok (ish)
Nice bit of weather presentation on N24 then. Mad Forecaster - you all know who !!!! doing a one-to-one on current mild weather and the possibilty of hard winter with Louise Minchin. They were on stools in front of screen, played straight into 1757 forecast with comments from Dan Corbett in the N24 studio with weather graphics played out without in-vision forecaster. it looked very good.

AIUI the same team present and produce both bulletins - so it is likely to be a repeat of WBR, rather than a second edition. That would save on circuit costs between NY and London, as well as circuits for guests. It can't be a huge saving - but every saving is relevant these days at the BBC...
