BBC News Channel: Presentation

Maybe that's all it was, like you say - nice to see something different.

bbc newsround presenter Sonali Gudka doing the business news this evening

is she just filling in or has she now left newsround- im never back from work to watch newsround lol

all the online sites say she still works on the childrens news programme but we all no how out of date they can be!

I saw that and what a refreshing change to see them moving away from the desk - why they can't do more of this sort of presentation? (Demonstrated here when it was News 24 with one presenter at the desk and one at the screen - or in the N6 case over where the sport comes from) I don't know, because it makes it a bit different and adds a bit of flavour to the presentation.

Don't BBC WN do some of their bits of presentation standing up? I'm sure I've seen Jonathan Charles doing it in that way before?

Not been a lot of activity in this thread? Nothing to talk about with ref. to the BBC News channel then?

What about the Barco screens?

I thought Sonali was great with the business news yesterday, better than Ellie I'd argue.

Well they're all out of tint aren't they.

Oops.

This report was shown on the 6 and 10 o'clock news and World News America, and it's being repeated every hour on the BBC news channel. But it appears no-one at the BBC has noticed and re-edited the VT yet. How embarassing for her.

Are we talking about her nipples?

The file name is "StephFlandersWardrobeProblem.jpg", so Chie has either seen the nips, or hates her clothes.

I noticed during a live link with Laura Kuenssberg at Brighton (well, it was recorded but shown as live if you see what I mean) the strap showing her name changed to show something along the lines of "Follow Laura on Twitter" (in the same way the reporters' web addresses appear). I have to say I have a moral objection to this as surely this is advertising Twitter?

I see no issue with Twitter being used in this way. It adds BBC content easily and simply to a worldwide medium. The only issue will arise when Twitter is monetised and if there is no facility for BBC users to opt out of advertising on their own pages. Linking to BBC authorised pages carrying adverts would be tricky.
