Logo[edit]

The current logo (File:BBC World News 2019.svg) should be restored to the infobox, since the newly uploaded logo (File:BBC_World_News_2022.svg) is not in use yet. The new logo was sourced from a Fandom page that claims it is "tentative". — Newslinger talk 08:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

might as well say that the current will be used since the page states when bbc world news shuts down 2407:7000:98C3:4D00:2810:C83D:43E1:D0BF (talk) 08:35, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

current logo i mean 2407:7000:98C3:4D00:2810:C83D:43E1:D0BF (talk) 08:35, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Venezuelan food crisis report[edit]

I was looking into the Venezuelan food crisis incident on 23th of feburary of 2019 and found that BBC had reported on it. However, some of the facts stated in the report have since been put into question by both The Intercept and the NY Times. I wonder if it might be a good idea to add a section about it into the article, or is it too small to be relevant? 193.183.194.67 (talk) 15:07, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Intercept only mentions BBC coverage in passing. Can't see NYT as paywalled. UNDUE imho. BobFromBrockley (talk) 12:26, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Previous bulletins" section: ambiguity[edit]

A sentence with too many clauses in this section was ambiguous: I corrected it just now after checking the source to clarify the ambiguity. (Alternative reading that I rejected: "A second broadcast at 22:00 ET ended in 2010. When BBC America introduced a second feed for the western time zones of the US on 18 February 2011, it was announced that BBC World News America would no longer be broadcast on BBC America and would instead be broadcast only on BBC World and local PBS stations in the US as a 30-minute programme.") — Spel-Punc-Gram (talk) 22:02, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
