ITV for example lead on the storms, which due to them effecting the south you’d usually expect blanket coverage on the BBC as well. Indeed ITV have lead on a variety of stories over the past few weeks, still covering Israel/Gaza but at a varying place in the agenda
I'd say the BBC got it very wrong editorially on the BBC 1 bulletins yesterday. All domestic bulletins on Channel 4 & ITV led with the devastating revelations coming out of the Covid inquiry of dysfunction and chaos at the heart of government during the biggest crisis facing the country since the war. If you were watching the Six or Ten you had to wait until 20 minutes in for a 3 minute report.
Anyone would think the BBC are worried about being too critical of the government.........
