It's about headlines though isn't it - striking on budget day, for the Coronatio or in the Eurovision week, is more likely to grab headlines than a random day in a random week.

Doesn’t look like this is the case, and those of us who said it was a strange day to pick were right

Very minimal mention of the strike action on Calendar, pretty much no mention on the ITV Evening News

Had it been a quieter day without the budget or without doctors and teachers strikes, it’s likely the regions and the national news would have featured the BBC strikes in the headlines and done full reports covering it

I have seen criticism (indeed think it was from Clean Feed themselves) of the BBC not covering the BBC strikes when mentioning the other strikes going on.   I guess the trouble with local radio and TV is there isn't really flagship local events to target.   Perhaps the final day of the football season if they were to target the football commentaries, but I doubt those covering them are necessarily NUJ members anyway.
