Hello

Hi Seamus215. I'm assuming that it is you that has been emailing me recently regarding journalism. This is just to apologise for my delays in replying, however I currently have been having trouble logging into my email address that I contact you through. I was wondering if you could perhaps message me on here for the time being until the problem is rectified. Thanks! If it isn't you, I do apologise. Wikiwoohoo 17:24, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, only questions on journalism please. :) How do you like the new World News Today though? Wikiwoohoo 17:28, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but YUCK! The studio background is to dim, and the graohics are horrible, but the content is ace. I just don't think George is the person for the JOb, I think AL Yates would be more suited.--Seamus215 17:33, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you really think it's that bad? I personally like the graphics, plus I think that using the Sport Today studio gives some kind of variety across the day of World viewers. From what I've seen, a lot of people watching BBC World seem to like Alastair Yates. He is a great newsreader, you never know, he may well present a World News Today programme one day.

I was watching a bulliten with Martine Croxall, and There was a weird wideshot I saw what looked like an area to stand up in-between the studio and the newsroom. I know you can't say anything, but it looked Interesting to say the least.--Seamus215 18:02, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to mention to you before but you can email me again now if you'd like, or you could stick to using this from now on. Up to you. Glad you watch the channel a lot. I would if I could, but only really get the chance to when abroad, when in fact I'm helping to contribute to what you see. :) Wikiwoohoo 20:45, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can't watch it, because directv doesn't have it, and even though I live in NYC, my conty doesn't have cabelvision. What exacly do you do at BBC World?--Seamus215 20:47, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm with BBC News in general rather than BBC World directly. I'm currently based concerning news in the UK, my five months in South Africa was in effect a form of work experience mixed with training to view an international news section and how it operated. If all goes well, I could be off again elsewhere later this year. Wikiwoohoo 20:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have any examples that you can show me of your work?--Seamus215 21:04, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing directly contributable to me. What happens with a lot of the articles you see at bbc.co.uk/news is very similar to articles on Wikipedia. Information is added in as time progresses by several people. Of course with BBC News this would be over a day rather than a continuous period with articles here. However, it is my ambition to become a journalist onscreen rather than behind the scenes. You may have seen me walking behind the screens behind the desks on BBC World and maybe BBC News 24 at some point so technically I already am :) Wikiwoohoo 21:10, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was reading in TVF that "Over the coming bank holiday weekend watch out for a studio shuffle for News 24. There is a reason for this and it will only be temporary. The normal move where News 24 moves into World's studio and BBC World moving into the national news studio will not be happening due to Monday being a regular work day in most of the rest of the world. " Do you know?--Seamus215 20:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They were not one nation, they were three seperate nations under a confederation government. Each had its own leader and they could not agree on a single government which is why the nation broke down. I will revert --DaBiggman 04:04, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
