The experts they get on are so often completely wrong on the BBC, I have no faith in who they pick to be on their, frankly I have little faith in experts these days. Sometimes its because you have experts who are just horrible at communicating, not helped by basically amateur presenters the BBC use these days and the daft trying to be comftable format they've adopted.
Sometimes its just a random guy with a degree who just isn't much of an expert, and sometimes its a cab driver.
I was rather, irked I guess when the BBC had a reporter down at one of the cities thats missing and he was just talking about the people missing like it was another fact, he just casually mentions the rescue crews are finding more bodies and really no survivors but talks excitedly about the upturned tractor thats been crushed, its on it side yes, one wheel is off, crushed, no.
The fact he's standing in what amounts to a mass grave but he just wants to show you all the cool damage, I don't know, it felt incredibly unprofessional.
Its kind of like the idiot the BBC guy had on site for the Chile miners, he kept acting like every other reporter was evil and hounding the families but he was their "friend" so had a right to attempt to push past them all and get right in the families faces, he was as bad if not worse than the rest. Frankly ALL the reporters in the Chile incident sickened me, surrounding the family of the first guy who came out, a woman crying, sad, worried but 50 camera's and 100 reporters all had to film it, then they broke the tent by pushing in on them. Reporters have just no morals anymore, 24/7 news is about entertainment and viewing figures now, not professionalism, quality, facts anymore. At least not the the UK/USA, Japans coverage seems massively more professional, but then as a society they just come off that way.
