Because they work on different shows, channels and media. They will also have different correspondents, political, Economic, Europe etc.

And the Daily Mail Group is a competing rival to the BBC, so that is just easy knocking copy.

Not seen much of you lately RS, not been in the big house for licence evasion again I Hope.

Do they need different reporters to make up different stories for different news channels. Do you go to the big house on the hill Gromit, i see the Police removed all the plants last week.

Gromit

Well, a good radio reporter might be very ugly and unsuitable to put in front of the cameras, and a vocal reporter may be good at presenting the news but not good at writing it to be read on the web. Different media require different reporting skills.

How many people are needed to change a lightbulb at the BBC ?

jno

yes, they often need different reporters for different channels. BBC3 viewers have different interests from BBC4's. BBC radio's audience are different again, and as Gromit says neither may be any good at turning a story into copy for bbc.co.uk.

Just you wait for the London Olympics they will be rolled out in force then, just as they were for the Beijing Olympics.

They wil ned some for the track event, some for the swimming events, some for the horse events, etc, etc, yawn.

Perhaps by then, some will have been given "The High Jump"

I'm wondering exactly how much the DM is paying you for your anti-beeb campaign, RebelSouls. And will they stop paying you when they realise how little success you're having?
