But ITV News, Sky News and BBC News all lead with the story, so those in charge obviously thought the story would be popular and resonate with the UK audience (Channel 5 News is not available on My5, it didn't appear until 40 mins into the main Channel 4 News bulletin). Whether that was the right editorial call is a debate that's worth having, but the majority of British TV news outlets seemed to have lead with it.
ITV and BBC's bulletin leant into the racial background of his story and trial, a news topic that is very much relevant to the current day and its audience. I do think there is probably an element of over-prioritising the media talking about the media here, with the two big televisual moments of the car chase and trial.
