Annoying Bbc

[churchill]

BBC reported this morning just before 10 that the Hang Seng was down over 400 points , switched to CNBC , which stated it was in fact up 50 odd points . I have also noticed on occasions that their currency rates are from the previous days close and not up to date .

Often their programing is incorrect - last night they stated at 10 pm that the next program at 10.30 would be Reporters , in fact , as it is every Sunday Evening it was Dateline London .

I think it would be better if they refrained from doing reports on business if they cannot be up to date .

when they report the weather , they always seem to start with the middle east , where the weather 9 times out of 10 is hot and sunny - often ignoring major storms in other areas .

Some programs seem to be repeated endlessly , with other only on once or twice - Micheal Palin travels I think have been on recently , but all I get when I switch on is click on line or reporters .

CNN is much better in my opinion for accurate and up to date reporting .
