So the same channel which has cheerleaders on also reports on the story shown on the ticker?

No, those are obviously faked screen shots.

I wasn't actually asking, I was making a point.

The channel needs to take itself seriously, instead of 'mucking around' like that.

If I wanted to I would watch a more light hearted channel.

Its no worse than 'Entertainment News' (called 'Entertainment News' but usually music/movies plugs/promos), Sport or Weather.

I doubt a 100% news channel would get many viewers.

Whilst I agree about Ents News, I have to say that I'd rather watch Sport and Weather than that.

I can see I'm not persuading any of you though.

I loved this, it's Saturday Luchtime, so what if they had a bit of fun. They have that huge Newswall and they might as well use it.
I can imagine an opening with them dancing there and the zoom around the Newsroom. I'm joking.

But you weren't actually watching it at the time.

That's not really relevant.
