Sky have just had a contributor on who said what was happening and Kay told him that this can not be reported yet as it has not been confirmed.

Talk TV keep mentioning the online speculation of casualties. Irresponsible.

Thing is that without any information about what's going on, the news channels have little to report. The main thing is that those in Nottingham know that there is an incident and disruption and of course their regional news and local radio will cover that.
Even eyewitnesses won't know what actually is going on, they'll see what happened outside their house but not the wider context. News channels have to be very careful in these circumstances
Problem is these days that a lack of information brings a lot of speculation which turns into misinformation online. There's always the idiots that immediately assume that because no one' s saying what's going on that it's suspect or a cover up. Actually it's just because the emergency services are just busy dealing with it and trying to work out what's going on themselves.
The police have no duty to keep Dave23545 on Twitter up to date with what's happening
Wow, going by tbe actual details just given out on Radio Nottingham it's a big complicated incident in multiple locations with several people dead. Not surprising that information had been scant so far, it's not simple

And I'm sure if they ran with 5 hours of nonstop speculation from Nottingham you wouldn't have complained.

Theres no need to speculate, We have 3 people dead. Quite obvious anything else needs to be dropped.
