On mediabistro: TVNewser They Quote David Bianculli:

"BBC World News is the best model out there for serious coverage in a tight TV format. The focus, for ABC and its network competitors, should be squarely on the over-the-air evening newscast. That's the flagship, the fountain from which all reputations and fortunes spring. Blogs are fun diversions, but the news - and the newscast - is what matters. Now more than ever."

But it always seemed to me that the flagship of the BBC World Service was the radio not the TV.
