And the "right on the money" award goes to... Brekkie! From earlier in this thread:

Exactly. When Wendy Richard died it was dealt with appropriately - one story at the end of a bulletin, with a similar level of coverage on the news channels. We all know when Jade Goody, who has contributed far less too British society, dies it'll be treated as top story material.

BBC N24 have been massively inconsistent this morning in their Jade coverage.
They seemingly now seem interested in the story. But before 0900 they'd hardly bothered...showing 'Click' for instance; even breaking the story ages after Sky and others had announced it.
BBC N24 is only "reactive" in that it reacts to what Sky News are doing. It clearly thought it was above the story (and Jade).

Well, considering the uproar caused in India by Jade Goody, I haven't seen any information about her death on the Indian news channel NDTV... it seems they're currently more interested in talking about the Indian Premier League cricket.
(EDIT: Although, checking their website, it is mentioned on there).
John McCririck now on Sky News.

I wonder if we can expect schedule changes later on Living TV or Channel 4...? They seem to be running as normal at present.
