Note how BBC News reporter mentioned "live on BBC News 24" whilst another interview by another channel was going on.

The other channel was ITV.

I notice that MSNBC have changed their look a little bit. The font that they are using is one which I wouldn't expect to see on a news channel.

Also Hotmail.com I think they just have a big general update

ITV has just gone to a break

Just the globe on the big screen shown in the wide shot - no programme name, not even the generic 'ITV News'

BBC World has been great this morning - the new graphics are fabulous with a big news story! They've kept viewers right up-to-date with the ticker, astons etc. Lucy Hockings did very well this morning before Nik Gowing took over.

Thats right. Well this was a big day for Lucy I hope that she will get bigger position. BTW I haven't seen any profiles of her?? Who she is.

WORLD havent got any mistake during this winter sunday.
GOOD JOB!

I'm a bit suprised that BBC 1 doesn't have a seperate DOG like it did on BBC 2 this morning.

Going back to ITV - major events usually happen when they are having a break.

You again? I hoped you'd gone. I don't think you are in a position to call anyone else stupid, somehow.

Prime Minister Blair has been having a nice chat with President Bush, and a three minute statement is due shortly.

The regional bit of the Politics Show seemed a bit out a place, talking about fish stocks on the Yorkshire version!
