They seem to be taking direct Fox News coverage...

Could it be they are moving studios and a relaunch is iminant

Nope!

They've been doing this on and off and have just cut away to another OB anyway.

Very optimistic about this relaunch, aren't you! Smile

And besides, if anything, the events of the last 5 days are bound to postpone it even further..

Sky have been taking Fox News sunday - the Sunday with Adam Boulton equivalent on FNC.
They later cut away to go to CBS Face The Nation

It's a good thing to do, though. The Sunday programmes in the US are more prestigious than they are over here, Meet the Press (NBC), especially. So it allows them to take coverage from their sister station (Fox) and one of 'the big three', that's CBS. They get all of the big interviews played out live and so there's an arguement for doing it.

I did watch FN Sunday, and it was very good, certainly better than Meet The Press (NBC), Face the Nation (CBS), This Week (ABC), Late Edition (CNN), and the many other 'Sunday' programmes over there.

I've always thought that sky would relaunch after the tory leadership race, as it kind of falls under the election 2001 umbrella, now that the tory race is over, the current graphics now no longer seem appropriate, so expect a facelift SOON!!!

Have I missed something here ?

I thought that ReLaunchNow had made it pretty clear that SN was relaunching on 24th Sept ? Has he posted something to the contrary now or is it just conjecture that due to the events in the US they may move more quickly ?
