TV NEWS RESEARCH
I decided to pick itv news because even though it isn't the first biggest news channel it is the second largest and you still get the information that you would on any other news channel no matter how big or small the company is its self.
Itv news comes on everyday at these specific times 13:30-13:40,18:30-19:00 and also 22:00-22:40
Depending on the times you have different presenters so for itv lunch time news your two main presenters would be Alastair Stewart and Nina Hossain After that would be the 18:30-19:00 so you would have Alastair Stewart and Mary nightingale Finally you have the ten o'clock News which Julie Etchingham And Mark Austin.
The Channels news coverage has won awards from the royal television society they have won the Emmy awards and also BAFTA.
Between 2004-2008 the itv evening news held the title of the "RTS News programme of the year"
The flagship itv news at 10 also has won numerous BAFTA awards most recent in June 2010.
Here is the itv news logo.
Here is a clip from itv news just so you can get an idea.
Itv was launched on the 22nd September 1955 Where it was owned by Itv pic,Stv group and finally utv media.
Again it's a very plain logo.
Here is a Trailer on a show that plays on Itv.
I think Itv news is aimed at ages 13 upwords because it discusses things that teenagers should be aware of eg dangers or even health hazards.
One of the main news story that i think got everyone suprised was that kate and William are having there second baby i think that its a good topic because they are very known in the media.
Another good one is a young girl by the name of alice gross has gone missing i think it is also a good news story because it aware's not just young people but older people aswell that there are crazy people in this world and also if anyone has seen her or knows any information it could get her home faster.
The last one that i think is very important is the uk sending iraq gift packages including heavy machine guns it will defiantly leave people confused as to why the uk are doing this.
