jamb0_1874 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 The BBC breakfast stuff is chronic, they even still have sports news with designated people doing these reports... Also what's with this desire to have everybody on a video link, which are 8/10 of very poor quality and often drop out. Can we not just have them on the phone. It makes no difference if you can see the person to the message there are trying to put across... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you are missing my point completely. I know what the thread was about but someone had a moan about something newsreaders do and I carried on from that. Newsreaders are just that, they read the news, their views, alternative or not is not why they are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 News presenters (at least at the BBC, SKY and ITV) stopped being Journalists a long time ago. A Journalist will have input into the stories, actually check sources and argue counterpoints to editorial decisions when needed. News presenters are just robots reading off an autocue. Most of the best journalistic news presenters in the UK have left these organisations and are working for proper journalism companies like Reuters or other international bodies.
