They should have admitted to Ofcom that they were closing the BBC News Channel, kept BBC World News pretty much as it was and broadcast that in the UK. The “World News” name would be a clear differentiator signalling that the channel was a global feed. In quarter-past-the-hour breaks, they could have done “UK News in Brief” headlines much as Newsday used to do.This would have been fantastic. We would be spared endless political drivel & rolling coverage of the antics of UK celebs/newsreaders. Such a missed opportunity to raise the bar.
