It will be interesting to see what develops presentation-wise over the coming months. This is a presentation site, so it's only natural that some members will speculate about what's to come and raise concerns based on what they've seen so far. Hopefully the top-of-the-hour will develop over time. I have always been a big Sky News fan, but I'm definitely tuning in far less these days. It has much less 'oomph' to it, for want of a better word! I get the sense that they're trying to modernise the channel and give it more of a digital multi-platform feel, but, so far, they seem have stripped it right back and not replaced the old elements with new ones. It would be nice to see them perhaps adopt elements of presentation from the likes of France info. We'll see!
I was just about to say, they've used the Studio very well tonight so far and used the blue and the red properly, rather than the obsession with draining colour out of stuff, tonight they're using the Sky News Centre for the task perfectly and it's a long time since they've done that.
Busy day for Adam, does his first 'All Out Politics' show live from the Labour part conference and 12 hours later back at Sky News Centre to cover the debate. Great coverage so far.
Little quip at Question Time there by Adam Boulton "We're more used to the BBC's Question Time format which is more about the audience than the panelists!" to laughs from Kay!
In the last hour of tonight's coverage we've had a Republican commentator at Sky Centre, Kay speaking to a Conservative speaker and now a former Trump advisor.
Come on Sky News, I never ever believe the talk of bias but three Trump supporters as invited guests on the trot?
I don't really see why there would be any bias, bearing in mind that Sky's viewers won't be voting in the election. It's probably more to do with the 'could Trump ACTUALLY win?' factor.
Completely agree re #whitehouserapbattle, Sky have been great of late at doing a fun take on the big stories. The snapchat service is full of little gems like this.
