Some of the Beeb’s world news is not too bad.

Years ago when I worked at a PBS network station, BBC World was relayed on and had it’s own dedicated internal channel.

I would generally put it up in a monitor at low level. They ran news, Holiday (travel), Click On-Line (technology), Top Gear, Talking Movies, The Biz, and some survival documentary but not Bear Grylls.

That beat the daylights out of kid’s animation, handyma’am, Head Start ECPDN, and a ton of other snoozers.

I remember when KCET oh man back in da day used to have BBC world news back to back in the morning and afternoon when I got home from school that was in the 1980s back in da day

For while KLCS Los Angeles was showing ITN world news in 1980s that was good
