BBC News 'bots'.
Feb 23rd, 2018, 6:13pm  
According to this NiemanLab report by Ricardo Bilton...

the ..."BBC is experimenting with new ways to introduce readers to complex topics.

.....Grant Heinrich, the BBC developer leading the organizations bot efforts (and one of the creators of BBC’s previous Brexit Bot) said that most of the bot software currently on the market is a poor fit for journalists’ needs."

What would Tord Alvar Quan Lidell (AKA Alvar Lidell MBE) make of a News bot?
