Agree there is no need for this wall to wall footage.
It’s a plane what went down, though tragic like you said there are other news out there which affects this country and the world.

Just give updates when they get their facts in, instead it’s all speculation to see who can get what guest n and how many dumb viewers will tune in.

Yep breaking news or news alert crap.

Just let the facts come in and report when they get these facts instead of all these guests guessing.
