Title: Referendum TV coverage
Post by EyeTunes on Sep 19^th, 2014, 9:44am

For me-Sky was the winner last night with a highly focussed first hour of coverage -then torpedoing in soon after 22.30 with the 99% accurate YouGov prediction.
Over on the "other side", viewers were treated to uncoordinated scene setting and aimless discourse about there being no exit polls, then stale lunchtime polling station footage and a misplaced news bulletin of "other news today" .
