Sky News scraps plan to launch in USA

There are more alternatives than in the UK, but the UK media is far more pural - it includes a much more diverse range of opinions. We have a wide range of newspapers across the poilitical spectrum.....the US doesn't. We also have national radio and a large national broadcaster.

All of the above networks broadcast the same news from roughly the same perspective - and importantly their news is very insular, you really have to struggle to find out what is happening outside the US

Awww, i'm sure he's not that bad. Sky News and large ego's? Surely not!

Boredom in repeating the same old news everyhour has probably been the reason for egoflation at osterley. Still, thats all to change soon according to some. Perhaps if you stick him in the new Sky News chopper?

I know I would be very p*ssed off if I were mistaken for Chr*s R*gers - I can't think of anything more degrading.

Mr Roberts is one of only a handful of presenters on Sky who comes across as a genuinely nice and likeable person. It is understandable that he was in a mood after that incident.

Disturbing pictures being fed into Sky News and Fox News right now. Fox seems a little more disturbing, with people having their hearts pumped in the middle of the sreet. i think Sky have managed to cut this part.
