BBC look north


Don’t get much coverage, obviously, down here so made the effort to tune in last night. I don’t know what I was expecting but it wasn’t as bad as that :lol:
 
Never watch it but that's proper crap
i see the 10 minute bit on BBC breakfast every morning when that lass who looks like she's just got out of bed does the news

On Friday she said over 46000 Sunderland supporters are heading to London today for the game tomorrow !?! . Not quite pet but....

Compared with the extensive and genuinely positive coverage by ‘Tyne Tees’/ITV that was on immediately beforehand, it was acknowledged on sufferance by ‘Look Geordie’
 
Dawn is just a puppet, the ones who are in charge - program controllers etc for Look North will be the sly Mag twats. Look at the credits at the end to see who they are then look up their social media profiles.
The coverage last night was beyond embarrassing- even for their low standards .I take great delight that it must have absolutely rankled them that SAFC and over 50k supporters had the dream weekend with no bother at all.
If that had been Newcastle then local BBC would have commissioned a one hour special.
Luckily it’s only us oldies who watch shite local news - the younguns get their fix from online platforms so won’t be influenced like the old days .
We are on the up and they hate that
The scum need to spend billions and achieve champions league to keep their hordes happy.
I know which I prefer

The BBC TV studio in Leeds broadcasts its verson of Look North for Yorkshire & the North Midlands and provides the local TV news & sport for the city of York & the surrounding area, The Newcastle studio therefore needs to be asked how often does it normally provided reviews and coverage of York football club's games when that job clearly falls within the remit of York's local Look North programme which is broadcast from Leeds .

Even if the Newcastle studio thought that some York based viewers might fall within its broadcast area they are likely to be very few in number. To give the York story precident over the news about SAFC that was clearly of interest to a significantly larger part of the BBC Newcastle's audience living in its designated transmission area was obviously quite deliberate and intended as an insult.

Although folk should complain to the BBC themselves efforts should be made to encourage SAFC itself to bring some pressure to bear. Playing down SAFC in its broadcasts undermines SAFC's abiliy to draw in new fans from the region & SAFC is a business that depends upon paying customers. The people who are doing this at BBC Newcastle may think that its a bit of fun but they are effectively operating a biase against SAFC that undermines the Clubs business. Worse still they are disaffecting a very large section of the BBC Newcastle's regional audience who will be inclined to write off all of the BBC's output rather than just 5 minutes of the local sports news.

If I were SAFC I would certainly consider giving the BBC less favourable access to the team and the activities of the Club than it gives to other meadia outlets. After all the BBC doesn't seem to be that interested in SAFC anyway and the Clubs thousands of fans will quickly find alternative sources for news about the team.

It is a quite deliberate policy against the club and therefore the city. They are very quick to report any negative issue
