[HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: time for news - Brit question

Sun Mar 4 23:11:18 UTC 2001

ummm.okay this might have been mentionned already.
even so, here i go: the main BBC news is at 6pm, the
next update used to be at nine but has changed to
10pm. the ITV news used to be at 10pm but then changed
to 11pm. recently it has changed back to 10pm and now
competes with the BBC. Channel 4 news is at 7pm
weekly, I'm not even gonna get into Channel 5 news.
hope this helps somewhat/.

I can't remember what your news programs are like, but
over here, <BR>
much of the News is speculation (and most of the
weather "forecasts" <BR>
are news). It's getting worse, even on the BBC ...
there is much <BR>
(chattering class) talk of "dumbing down" to
stories about fluffy <BR>
animals and the like. Sigh.<BR>
