I think all the broadcasting outlets have continuous live access to other news organisations' wires and websites, for up to the minute views of how stories are developing and being handled by the media en-masse.
So, probably not too surprising to see the live BBC www somewhere in the Sky News Centre.
If you look closely enough, you can sometimes see Sky News playing on a monitor on the desks behind the newscaster in the BBC World newsroom. (or at least you used to be able to see it in the previous World news set...not sure about the new current one).

...er... surely you mean so that they can copy each other's breaking news straps...!
It's amazing how often Sky flashes something as Breaking News... and seconds later a Breaking News strap appears on ITN 24... with exactly the same wording.

A lot of channels must share various news wires such as Reuters and not just rely on their own network. So stories breaking at the same time and with the same strap is inevitable?

There's a special feed that can be viewed which has a four way split screen with BBC N24, BBC World, Sky and CNN in the News Centre.

There is also a different version with ITV NC replacing one of the others (CNN I think)

Just goes to show that at Sky you can kick the **** out of one of your colleagues and be comfortable that you won't lose your job (just so long as you do it off company premises, blame drink, and terrify your victim into not lodging a complaint).

How come Colin Brazier is in Washington, D.C. reporting on the Bush inauguration?
I thought - post fracas - he had been demoted and was being kept at home.
Maybe the Sky execs are so terrified of him that they've had to send him to another continent.
