I keep noticing it. It's like a major deal requiring an immediate alert to the public. An actor has died! This is of global importance!
You cam understand Prince being newsworthy in America, but BBC report on celebrities deaths as an emergency news ot that must be released now even before details of the event are attainable.
Is it me, or is it weird /pol?
Who?

Precisely. Who? And why does BBC treat it as high priority?
The public must know IMMEDIATELY! No time to waste, put the headline out NOW, we will find out the details later.

Wow, you're hilarious m8. You all bantz on about how Australia is such a rough country, then make it clear that you really have no idea how things actually work in a culture so primitive that life is cheap and entertainment is priceless.

Because they are becoming irrelevant. They hardly had any idea who Philip Seymour Hoffman was and were palpably shocked at the reaction to the news of his death from everywhere.

Because it's easy to get b-roll

As the national broadcaster, sorry, xeroadcaster, they have to print news relevant to the citizens.

I've never heard of the person. I'm guessing its cause he's a nig. It's just the BBC indulging in signaling.

Because only the intern works at BBC on sundays.
And he wanted to make breaking news about someone breaking down, on stage in this case.
This is obviously nout funny.
