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.

Houthi attack on Saudi Arabia: What it means for the US | BBC News

Published

on



Is Washington leaving Saudi Arabia to fend for itself?

Last week, Houthi rebels launched a series of missile strikes on Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s capital. Surveillance footage showed a fireball erupting as airport passengers ran for cover. At least fourteen people have been killed and hundreds were injured.

The attack is the latest escalation in a decade-long war between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis in neighbouring Yemen. The Saudis have long relied on financial, military and intelligence support from the United States, particularly in their fight against the Houthis. But Washington so far has shown little appetite for direct involvement in the fighting.

So why is the United States holding back? And what does that mean for the people caught in the middle?

The BBC’s chief international investigations correspondent, Nawal Al-Maghafi, recently reported from inside Yemen and joins The Global Story’s Asma Khalid to discuss why this conflict is escalating and what might happen next.
