One of the old channel’s greatest assets was consistency and reliability. Regardless where you were, you could switch it on and get a quality world bulletin on the hour. Neither dominated by UK domestic news or lazy CNN Trump type content.
World used to be a constant at home and in hotels abroad, it’s not on anymore. Further why would the premium advertisers stick around and pay the ad fees BBC charges if it’s no longer a premium product?
You can run a news channel on the smell of an oily rag and it still look great and put out consistently high quality content. I’ve talked about the ABC news channel in the past. It’s mind boggling that NBH can’t get their head around this.
