Should there be a better link to BBC News? (December 2003)

I know it's not TV pres, but...

I think there should be a link to BBC News at the top of the page, like there's a link to TV, Radio etc. Like this...

What does everyone else think?

I think they're trying to separate their domestic and international audiences when it comes to the World Service site:

Having on the main BBCi nav would probably be a bit overkill, because it's linked from practically everywhere else in the site.

Never noticed that before on the WS site. But the www.bbc.co.uk is both domestic and international - it's not just the WS site which is international. If you go to www.bbcnews.com (the site they trail on the WS) you get the standard |CATEGORIES|TV|RADIO|COMMUNICATE| etc.

You must be looking at the UK version of the bbc news website. If you click on "change edition" and go to the world version it has the same buttons as on the WS site.
