Interesting how the BBC News Channel broke the news from The Guardian on the 'Phone Tapping' story at 17:50 with Jon on the 5 News Hour - but Sky didn't do anything until 2300...

Did they break it? Jon Snow mentioned it in the trail for C4 news in the early evening.
Indeed - note to Sky: you know you're a crap news channel when Channel 4 News breaks a story before you
To be fair, Sky are normally fairly good at getting stories before their rivals. So it does seem a little suspicious that they were so slow on this particular story which doesn't show the Murdoch empire in a good light.
The BBC seem to have the lowest quality fed of Obama's speech in Accra of any of the news channels. I get the feeling they're using a phone line for the audio rather than taking the audio with the poor quality pool feed, and they haven't done anything about the relative delays, so the picture is about 3 seconds behind. Sky, CNN and Fox all have better (but still ropey) pictures and sound.

Anyone know what happenned on BBC World News America last night? After about 5 minutes the programme was ended with Matt Frei mid-sentence. Then went to an advert for the golf later this week and then an episode of Click started. No announcements to explain anything
