Thanks for the post - my two last queries were actually relating to Sky News not CNN. Sorry I should have made that clearer Smile

No problem.

Speaking to the BBC, the Director of their English language service said staff phones were taken off them and people sent home so they are struggling to get the right people in the right places to get back on air.

It's strange when you see your old boss playing a part in a crisis!

Fox News is showing a stream of Sky News HD. (not in HD)

How unfair, we don't get a stream of Fox News. Confused

Sky News is available worldwide on YouTube anyway so I don't really know what they are trying to do there. I could understand if it was a UK story, however it just goes to show how better equipped Sky News is at covering international events than Fox News is.

Fox News is available on Sky, but I don't know why anyone in the UK would want to watch it other than out of curiosity.

David Eades has joined Gavin Esler in Studio E at 1:00 For doubled head presentation on the NC And World-Maxine Mawhinney will be taking over from Gavin at 2:00

Following soldiers' attempts to try and shut down the station, it appears people are fighting back

The following tweet appears to be a video of some of the military v. police confrontation in the CNN Turk offices - you could hear the loud background noise on the live stream.

There is a little bit of violence (mainly pushing and shoving, but one or two punches are thrown) so I've put it in spoiler tags. If you don't want to view, then please don't.





Incredible to think of this happening inside a TV station.

Double headers look a lot better in E than in C with the fake newsroom backdrop.

Indeed it does . . .


Doesn't WN only ever get to see Studio E for programmes such as Dateline London, but never for actual rolling news?
