BBC news programmes have been getting worse for ages and the amount of coverage given to inconsequential dross continues to increase.
The decline in standards was clearly spelled out in today s lunchtime bulletin.
We have BBC News channels on at work, today they have covered the upcoming storms in the UK, Israel and the Westbank, France Riots etc. The decline in standards was clearly spelled out in today s lunchtime bulletin.
Are these dross?
I think it's symptomatic of societies desire to have constant programming. I would get bored of most things, if they were on for 24 hours a day, every day.
Having a rolling 24 hours news program can only lead to desperation to fill the the airtime, with something, anything. In my opinion, of course.

It is poor to have spelling mistakes. Especially where it looks like someone genuinely thinks a word is spelled in a way that it isn't - rather than being a "typo", I mean. But I guess that mistakes of that type are less likely to get spotted by other people.
Perhaps things being checked and double checked is a thing of the past now that outlets race to compete with teach other 24/7.
