It has been for years....you also forgot to mention the Inverness Opt out that was promised to them years ago.....why has this never been challenged? Gary - the country does not stop at Stirling.
Did I say the country stopped at Stirling? STV could have made in one national programme when it rebranded as STV News but they never, so you should thank your lucky stars you still have a separate North bulletin. Rose tinted spectacles perhaps?
Not at all Gary and yes you are correct they could have gone with a national programme (and wont rule out they wont yet) but lets look at the hard facts....where do stv spend the money in developing their service....quite clearly in the central belt. The Inverness opt out was in their promise of performance years agao....where is it?? Why no HD upgrade in the Aberdeen / Dundee studios (even on freeview)??? Time to invest some of its profits it its Northern half of its operation.
I had the delight of Grampain land last month and I do have to say STV is fallen short in its obligation to the area, and I dare say to the East and dundee aswell.
Someone is already not happy with either.
