Are they going to reintroduce ABR, etc in the UK in the back half hour?

Yes - interesting use of Studio C for World News America.

It seems like around this time every year they have their primary presenters from around the globe anchoring from London. I wonder if there's a company wide meeting or perhaps updating publicity photos/promos?

Edit : Not to sound crazy but I looked back at some other broadcasts WNA anchored from London this week last year as well. I for some reason decided to keep it on my DVR for one day to transfer it to my computer to make a YouTube clip of it but never happened.

CNN also does this, i think it might be for things as you say

Slightly awkward break into the Business Live TOTH with coverage of Barack Obama in Ethiopia. After the titles they went to the wrong shot of Alice Baxter at the desk, then the camera spun round to Ben Thompson stood at the screens who understandably didn't seem to know what do with himself since he wasn't actually talking!

To be honest I really don't know why they needed to cut into regular programming for POTUS walking into the presidential palace during that photo op. It would be one thing if Obama were to speak to carry the opening portion. That being said I thought it was good that they didn't cut out during the Star-Spangled Banner.

I'm curious does the TD have a punch panel to quickly change camera position and video source?

Peter Dobbie in Studio E as piloting for Newsday continues.

Pilots for Newsday must be underway tonight to see whether the new look will work for the 3 consecutive hours from 11pm to 2am.

Thanks. I over looked the link thinking it was a signature. Rolling Eyes

Also did anyone think the music sounded different on World?
