RE: GB News - Brekkie - 07-05-2022
Sad though that many other organisations have felt the need to strip vehicles of their branding for their journalists safety.

Has there been cases of Sky or BBC cars being attacked within the UK? I have never actually seen such a car but I know there used to be vans.
I thought it was more of a case of broadcasters just selling off their cars etc as they now rent them or they are redundant due to new technology.
This GB News car I am sure is more for advertising than any practical purpose.
RE: GB News - Scrotnig - 08-05-2022
A GB News branded car appeared in Patrick Christys’ Friday evening show. Pre-recorded segment about “fly boarding” which I admit I’d never heard of.

even leased vehicles may be branded (think utilities companies who might lease their fleet of vans and then refresh every X years). It's just a vinyl wrap, easily applied and removed. Not sure technology makes cars redundant, the reporters do need something to drive around in, even if it doesn't necessitate a full ENG sat truck.
Good to see GB News burnishing their climate credentials by picking hybrid cars!
RE: GB News - London Lite - 08-05-2022
It reminds me of commercial radio branded cars where sales people would drive in them. GWR also had promo vehicles called Black Thunders.

Less about journalist safety but disruptive and unpleasant nonetheless.

I was down at where they do the BBC News when on location in Belfast yesterday (all equipment was still set up.) There was a satellite truck without any BBC branding on it which I thought was strange, would this be why?
There were also people at it, were they doing anything from there yesterday?

It's not entirely that, but as has been suggested elsewhere you don't want to advertise expensive kit in an unattended vehicle.
We used magnetic logos on Sat trucks as they were leased (sometimes for a specific event).
You might need also vehicle 'badges' to make access easier to a big OB event just that little bit easier. We often had a 'village' of pop up work areas and that certainly helped because I knew which one I was working from.

Not to mention the fact that it was neither egregious nor shameful enough for Ofcom to find fault with it.

RE: GB News - ginnyfan - 11-05-2022
Is GBN out of the woods, ratings wise?? With all the talk of TalkTV bombing, it seems like GBN found some legs and stability.
Media Guido on Twitter: "News channels prmetime average viewers (1900-2300, 10 May) settling into a pattern: BBC News: 143.7 GB News: 72.3 SKY News: 49.4 Talk TV: 21.9" / Twitter
RE: GB News - London Lite - 12-05-2022
Presumably it's Farage and Wootton propping up the share?
