Hallo
I thought it would be fitting to ask this. WIth celebrities, sofas and Jeans now gracing the news, I thought I would ask what everybody thought the news would be like in 10 years or so.
It has definitely changed. Ten years ago, we were starting to get used to the prospect of presenters perching on desks, the BBC Evening News was at Nine, and the News At Ten was at its prime with Sir Trev at the helm.
Regions had their own identities - and people like Peter Sissons and John Suchet were at the top of their careers. News was news - with no mention to the celebrities wasting their lives away.
News channels were becoming a new idea - yes, Sky had been in the business a while - but a British rival was just beginning to emerge, News 24.
My question is - what will become of the news in the next 10 years? Content wise? Look wise? Style wise? Set wise? Is it all going down one hell of a slippery slope?
Personally, I do. With five news' relaunch, Sky's crap News Channel and a lack of gravitas across the news, with Trev's comeback on NAT in my opinion, disappointing - I think that Television News will have to pull a hell of stunt to recover from its poor journalism, bad sense of newsworthiness and the lack of viewer trust which was diminished in '07, with nightmares like the Queen incident of Newsnight. It seems to me Channel 4 has been the only channel to maintain some dignity with its programming!
I am a teenager aspiring to go into this sort of thing, and I would find other people's perspectives on this interesting.
