Details still sketchy it seems but can't help but feel if it was in London BBC would have coverage on BBC1.

Don’t tune in now, it’s even worse of who’s who.

BBC filling the time by reshowing the eye witness account of Lynn Haggitt for the 73rd time on the channel now, presented by a chap in a navy blue casual shirt.

It's not. For the third time, their job is to deal with the incident. Let them work out what the heck happened and then tell us.

They released the basic details about what happened and where just before 10am. There was nothing else to say at the time presumably becaysr that's all they could say. 

Other details such as sequence of events will be being pieced together. Details of victims and the person arrested take a bit longer to make public.

I don't get this attitude of 'I must be told everything straight away'. Why? I'm as intrigued as the next person but I'd rather get on with my life and wait to hear what the police have to say when they're ready.

BBCs coverage this morning could easily be used as evidence to Ofcom that the merger hasn't benefited UK viewers.

Heart and Galaxy (as the latter was known as at the time of course) were in it too I believe.

Rajini Vaidyanathan was a regular correspondent on the overnight slot, as she was based in the US for a while.

Pretty much every major breaking UK news story over the last few months has done that.

Here's how Al Jazeera has covered the news. Even they had a reporter on scene I think before the BBC did.
