In the spirit of rebellion (even though I very rarely visit TVF any more) I thought I would give metropolitans the option of putting down their gizz-filled kleenexes and coming to natter about tiny changes (or non-changes) gracing the ever popular BBC News 24.
Also acceptable is the eternal whinge of "who is better?" which I've pre-empted by starting a poll already!
NOT acceptable is aspies sufferers using it as an excuse to show their sheer anorak-ism by posting rotas.

As I've said many, many times:
Present it.

Aye!Aye! C'ptn..
Well i'm a Sky news Gal myself. My love affair with sky began after 9/11 and during the Iraq war.
I really warmed to David Chater and his impatience at times with the presenters in the studio.
I'm in a bit of a habit, i tune into sunrise with a cuppa everymorning and swoon over Steve Dixon.
Useless fact about me: I found this place through the Sky news Tribute site, that was, then skynews centre etc..
You've got Johnnie Larkin to blame for me joining this place

I get most of my news online during the day, and seldom give a full bulletin my time these days.
If I browse to a news channel, I like the BBC's title music and overall visual package, but find Sky more exciting (especially the dramatic theme), but seldom watch beyond that.
In conclusion; Judge Judy is on whilst I cook my evening meal, so I listen to her wisdom instead.

Same with me, usually. I occasionally watch the ITV Lunchtime News for half an hour or so (just to watch the fantastic 'The Pulse' of course).
I prefer Sky News for any breaking news though, but BBC News is usually quicker for online stories.
