RE: GB News - Stooky Bill - 02-10-2023
Note that The Times article corroborates Popbitch's item in the incident.
Byline has a longer article along the same lines going into more detail about what's been going on at GB News and the future options

RE: GB News - Ugly_bloke - 02-10-2023
Looks like Dan Wootton's show has been replaced with 'GB News Tonight'.
Also looks like BOXT have pulled the weather sponsorship.
Just when you think they're starting to turn a corner.....

Given we have just had a month end on Saturday perhaps the weather sponsorship was always due to end on 30 September and it ceasing is nothing more than a mere coincidence.

RE: GB News - Jon - 02-10-2023
Bit of a weird branding mix, the graphics have changed to the generic ‘GBN Tonight’ name, whilst Mark Dolan is referring to it as Mark Dolan Tonight.
RE: GB News - Brekkie - 02-10-2023
If they're serious about cleaning things up and being more professional then surely the likes of Mark Dolan and Neil Oliver are on borrowed time too.
From some of the reports of the last few days it's as if their main investor had only just realised exactly what he was investing in.

Quote:Later on Wednesday, Frangopoulos was informed that GB News’ weather sponsor, the boiler and heating company Boxt, was withdrawing its advertising from the station.

The Times article is behind a paywall to which I do not subscribe hence I was unaware that the sponsorship had been "pulled" by the advertiser. Not sure why the respondent to my query thought necessary to bold the word "was" in their reply.
