The BBC are missing the press conference now. John Sopel will be turning in his bed! All his hard work for nothing.

That is Sky's call. They may well stand outside the hospital all night. The inevitable mobile phone footage of him being shot and jumped on by the police will be released at some point too.
Seems like it's all over.

Not true, ITN's Emma Murphy asked a few questions first and I believe others (maybe the BBC reporter) were questioning too. Wilson persisted though with unanswerable questions and even managed to fit in "you're live on Sky News"... jeez.
EDIT: and how many times must Kay Burley say "Stand by, Andrew"?!
This is almost like a conference for Sky cause only Andrew is asking questions.
Does BBC even have a reporter there still?

Television is a visual medium, it's about being at the scene - not just newscasters reading from a statement. Sky were late to the scene, but stayed to the end. Major fail for the BBC but kudos for their earlier coverage.

However much we love the BBC, I don't think we can pretend it was an editorial decision to miss the press conference. They are simply over stretched with too many outlets when compared to Sky News.

Burley's hopes to narrate a major gunbattle have been dashed.

Will all these reporters get overtime?
I've noticed that some journalists just take over press conferences, ego mania.
