Tsk, that'll teach me to use Netscape 6.1. Usless bloody thing.

Bit surprising that this second wave of attacks hasn't brough the BBC back to News 24. Have Sky taken the breaking news off the video wall yet? Would be an idea to replace it with a live shot of Kabul.

Here in Canada, CBC and CTV have their own coverage, while Global's taking the CNN feed. (A coupla other local indepedent stations in the Vancouver-Seattle area are also taking CNN coverage.) Global occasionally has break-ins from its national newscenter here in Vancouver.

In the States, NBC (of course) and ABC are airing their coverage, FOX is taking Fox News Channel, and CBS's airing an American football game.

All this taking place on Thanksgiving Day in Canada...

BTW, the CBS affiliates can decide whether to take the football feed or the news feed. WCBS, the New York station (which i get on my satellite) is taking the news coverage.
