Well it looks like it's upset the BBC.

What are they worried about? :D

Very successful launch I think.

Got off to a good start by pointing out that it’s not racist to boo political gestures in favour of an organisation which wants to pull down statues and defund the police.

Oh dear
Caught out again.
Read the item you posted. The BBC is not the only member of that group, but the way it works they all have to trust each other, which I doubt they will GB .
Also have a look at the strange page in the Express that has come from. Almost as if they have a vested interest..
Indeed...

"Each broadcaster either contributes equipment or funds or takes a turn at covering an event for other members of the pool.

That's going to be a toughy for GB News as they appear to neither.

By what measure do you define success? The broadcast was full of glitches according to multiple reviews. Hardly slick, was it?

Ok, how many on this forum would sign up as super fans?

What they mean is they want a media outlet that spouts the same intolerant shite that they bore their pub mates with day in, day out :rolleyes:

Leaving aside the content for now (early days yet) am I alone in finding the picture quality poor and the volume level variable?

But that's because it tells you what you already know and agree with.

Others expect a little professionalism from the quality of presentation given they already delayed launch and the funding they have access to. Unless it's meant to look cheap in which case it will all be about soundbites and clickbait.

As I said, they need a "Falklands-style" distraction. They must be praying for England to go out of Euro 2020 as the result of a poor decision from a continental referee... If it ain't broke etc.

If they want conspiracies, I nominate Shabbado to vent his feelings about the tournament being rigged against Scottish progress. That will be primetime viewing, even I will tune in for that.

As it’s clearly the Gammon Broadcasting News I will neither watch nor bleat about it. Why would you watch something and then continually bleat. No one does that do that do they ? Oh :mrgreen:
