Beeb Programme Costs

5 news is popular cause of its young presenters. Everyone likes them. its also popular for its style. i wish kirsty young had stayed there it was better when they walked around the news room.

I used to watch 5 News a lot when Kirsty used to wonder around the working newsroom. It was good, but the when they went 'all white' and Kirsty left, it lost something, didn't seem quite as innovative. I remember when they had Tony Blair in for a live interview in the newsroom, and there he was propped up on the desk next to Kirsty, he looked quite comfortable really.

5 news is still very good in my opinion. it has some sort of buzz to it that attracts me to watch it.

Does anyone else think the chatroom should be brought back?
I know there were a few 'incidents' shall we say, but I have searched about and really the only other alternative is an IRC channel and I cannot see many people wanting to use and IRC client.
I cannot find a java password chat client, although I know they exist.
We had two instances in CNN today where people were imitating others, one person was impersonating the QandA member, at CNN Centre in Atlanta the other was impersonating the moderator, but it was obvious it wasn't them.
I just don't think that one stupid idiot should ruin it for the rest of us!
Anyone else agree?

if it was brought back i would take every comment with a pinch of salt cause people were doing very good impersinations.

Oh come on, I mean that is just part of online chat there will always be a few idiots but I don't think it should spoil it for everyone.
The only other good alternative would be to do a Yahoo chat using Y! messenger, or perhaps MSN or AOL, would prefer MSN because I have it installed, I got rid of Y! a while ago.
I suppose that is the only alternative.

That's all very interesting, but I wonder how much the BBC News 24 newsreaders get paid a day?
