Thirty years of BBC World News – BBC News

Published

on



The BBC launched its first international television news channel thirty years ago on 11 March 1991.

That year saw the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the first Gulf War, IRA attacks in London and the very first website created. And the Nobel Peace Prize went to Aung San Suu Kyi.

Presenter David Eades looks back at three decades of live and breaking stories, the highlights and a few bloopers.

    Impartiality, trust and truth 😂😂😂
    Besides all sorts of misinformation and lies the BBC spreads, I am still in love with their graphic design, architectural design of the studios and especially David Lowe’s news theme.

    BBC WSTV was only seen in Europe until October 1991 when it was launched in Asia via STAR TV. That increased interest in world news channels and prompted CNN International to launch in 1994, in hopes of competing against BBC WSTV.

    Years ago when I was stationed in Germany in the American army, we left the television in our office on the BBC ,so we would know what was going on in the world. We took your news as fact we would upgrade our readiness on what you reported. Recently due to the embarrassing American news being clearly propaganda straight from the state department, and the White House, I once again turned to the BBC. Imagine my surprise to discover that the BBC has become a mouth piece for the military industrial complex. The rush to label what was obviously an S300 rocket as a Russian cruise missle was simply the last straw. You attempted to start a nuclear Holocaust when you knew the facts, either you have become completely incompetent, or absolutely corrupt. Either way after a lifetime of trust I have reached my limit. I know that you don't care about my opinion, but hear it is, you have failed England, you have failed the world, you don't even have journalists on the ground in in the Donbass, where the Ukrainian s are using American weapons to bomb civilians in the capital city every day, not a word about the billions of dollars being laundered through Ukraine daily. You have become a back page rag. How far the Empire has fallen.

    Sure, the BBC is heavily bias but if I were to live in a world of poor media coverage atleast you could rely on the BBC to cover high quality in depth news despite it being basicly an extension to UK Propagnada

    Used to prefer watching BBC World News via Eutelsat Hot Bird in the U.K. in the late 90’s and 00’s. The domestic channel, News 24 as it was called then, was a much lesser imitation. Trusted anchors and global reporters who simply knew their subjects inside out. Now it’s dross and unresearched tittle tattle stuffed with extreme guardianistas. In the last 10 years the reputation of the BBC domestically has been greatly diminished domestically, and not without good reason – its become the Sunday sport of television news.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

US launches more strikes on Iran and resumes naval blockade of ports | BBC News

Published

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.

Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.

President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.
