Sky News showed US footage from GMA and Fox & Friends, rather than from Comcast owned NBC's Today programme for the US perspective of the baby photos.

The F&F coverage was incredibly frustrating to watch, complete with Steve Doocy calling The Queen QEII and Ainsley Earhardt moaning about not being able to see the face properly.

Sky News can choose which US network they wish to show. Just because they are owned by Comcast, doesn't mean a full transition from using Fox News or ABC.

Do you have a link?

US Networks also may do mashups like that showing different reactions to different stories and maybe the reaction on Today wasn’t as big or over the top as they were hoping. P

The entire CBS This Morning Eye Opener is essentially that - a few headlines complete with video and v/o from a variety of sources

US coverage from earlier on WPVI-TV's Action News, you know, the bulletin with the funky 70s music!


CNN Talk on CNNI was extended to an hour to cover the first appearance of Archie. Here's analysis from Kate Williams who I assume is in the same building, but from the DTL point.
