No offence Sky News, but why do you have to start your threads with BREAKING NEWS or EXCLUSIVE, can't we just have the topic title. Anyway where were we ? Ah Huw Edwards, you could always catch the late repeat.

These grab my attention... the fact that they fill up 1 third of the screen though is a little annoying.
I can read, please stop using BREAKING NEWS in everything, in 20 mins time it will not be BREAKING NEWS what will you do then?

Plus, it's not really breaking news is it.

The reason CNN (and all the other America news networks) use BREAKING NEWS so much are because they are desperate for ratings. Especially CNN. They get their highest ratings (and they are usually astronomically high) when there are big BREAKING NEWS events. At least, that's what I've been able to deduce.
