The BBC gets a lot of things right. Their nightly news on PBS stations is one of the few places (if not the only one) where one can hear what’s going on outside the borders of the great USA.
I’m always astounded at how much my niece (from the old country) knows about the US-including the weather in the tri-state area! Yet my European homeland is probably mentioned once or twice a year and only on CNN.
I admit this may have something to do with her constant connection to the internet as opposed to my reliance on tv news and the occasional copy of the New York Times. My bad? Probably.

I’ve never watched BBC. However, this does look lke an interesting presentation.
