News channels can have domestic, international, regional and language editions with different schedules. Use the complete broadcaster name and edition when locating a bulletin. The player’s guide helps with programme timing, but a channel’s identity and the source of a report should remain clear when assessing what you are watching.
Why it matters
Similar logos can appear on several feeds. A delayed bulletin, rolling live channel and on-demand clip are different presentations. A time-stamped report should not be mistaken for a current live picture simply because it appears in a player.
Work through the steps
- Identify the domestic or international edition and language you intend to watch.
- Check the displayed programme and any visible time or date markers.
- Use more than one reliable source when a report affects an important decision.
