Actually, BBC America and some PBS stations (WGBH and NHPBS are the two I know of) will be simulcasting it live. In addition, PBS will air a 90-minute "Events of the Day" version tomorrow night.

MediaZone4K 1819 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 PBS local stations are covering the funeral. BBC America is airing it with no L3 graphics. All cable networks except Fox Business and CNBC are covering the service. Looks like WCBS went local for the first half hour of coverage and then went to the network at 6 o'clock ET. Not sure if other CBS O&Os did the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VHSgoodiesWA 289 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Fox not covering it here, again. KYVE (PBS) is covering the service with no bumpers or chyrons on the screen. Not noticing any coverage on Absolute Radio, Gold, Lyca, or Smooth. BBC radio networks only. Were they not allowed to simulcast the service??? You'd think on Britain's worst day of mourning in decades, that every radio and TV station in England would simulcast the service (well, except CBeebies). Even grocery stores have shut down.

FOX may have left it up to the local stations. KTTV/FOX LA took the FOX News feed for the early part of GDLA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panewswatcher69 26 Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Does anyone know why CBS ended their coverage right after the funeral was over and provided no further coverage including the procession? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
