The problem is you often don't get more info out of 20 minutes on one story than you do compared to a few minutes covering the key aspects. I watched quite a bit of coverage yesterday on BBC News, Sky News and the Panorama special - and also caught Newsbeat covering it at teatime. I thought they'd spend the full 15 minutes on it but they covered it in less than 4 minutes and it was just as informative as any other coverage - though just listening again seems that decision was due to spending the rest of the bulletin on the Lionesses rather than actual news. Suspect BBC World will have to suffer that tomorrow too.
