In these developing situations rolling news is generally just rolling with the same limited information rather than adding anything significant.
I do agree though in these situations just as would usually happen with the evening bulletins if a story was unfolding it is probably best for the news channel to switch to BBC World.
You’re absolutely right, but I just prefer to keep it on in the background rolling on a single story if it’s big enough. Just feels wrong “‘moving on to other news”.
What about people just switching on for a few minutes in the morning to see if anything major is happening. They’d miss it.
I think maybe a temporary ticker on Breakfast would help - “Hamas launches major surprise attack on Israel. Coverage continues soon…”
