Made this antelope mistake for the Awards Ceremony envelope. Itjust seems that suddenly the bbc it has twisted its interest to a separate universe or something. We have people in south sudan starving to death, we have donald trump who is trying to manipulate the media, we have north korea threatening a new arms race and yet the whole world comes to a standstill because Warren Beatty opens the wrong envelope. If the bbc losing perspective on this sort of thing . Itjust dominated breakfast and it dominated the whole of the news for the rest of the day and in fact the next day i was sick to death of hearing about it come on bbc, get a grip. No awards from viewers of the best News Broadcaster there. The Disgru Ntlement viewers of the best News Broadcaster there. The disgruntlement continued through the week. Bbc news reported on thursday that the two accountants from pricewaterhousecoopers held responsible for the fiasco would not be working on the oscars again and on friday they would be given bodyguards following threats on social media. Stuart reynolds was another viewer who thought bbc news was living in la la land, tweeting. Well, another viewer who contacted us well, another viewer who contacted us this week was mary kavanagh. She is in our oxford studio. Also we have the bbc control of daily news programming. Mary, what was your objection . I felt exactly the same as those to viewers that have just given their views. There was so much time spent on this one silly item andi time spent on this one silly item and i think my views from but that Breakfast Programme where dan walker and the weeds were trying desperately to keep the momentum going and they were so excited, oh, we are going to the red carpet we went to the red carpet and there was this poor man standing in a kilt, desperately trying to speak to somebody and he couldnt get anybody to speak to him. I think he would have grabbed a cleaner if he could and it was just silly. Have grabbed a cleaner if he could and it wasjust silly. I know have grabbed a cleaner if he could and it was just silly. I know there is always a different issue every year with oscars coverage but this year with oscars coverage but this year it was compounded. Is it because it is fun . Of course, it makes a nice refreshing change in the mix. Viewers feel that we overdo it. On the six oclock news we did a five minute item on this. Im not suggesting we under played it. Five minute item on this. Im not suggesting we under played it hours after. It was on the day of the event and listeners, are few of them this is the first time they have had a chance to see what the outcome is and the ramifications as well is just what happened. It is a fun item. This is probably the major eventin fun item. This is probably the major event in the can calendarfor the Entertainment Industry and it is the biggest blunder in the entertainments Entertainment Industrys history. We need to cover popular culture. It is the biggest Entertainment Industrys Story Of The Year and that is why it warranted that slot at that time. Yes. I dont think it is, actually. I dont think, with the greatest respect, it is the great Big Media Event that everybody is interested in. Did you also have a view of what other stories were given less can coverage other stories were given less can coverage or other stories were given less can coverage or dropped off the running order . I dont know what they were because it just order . I dont know what they were because itjust seemed that everything was oscars, oscars, oscars. I believe there was a Child Abuse Item but it was squashed into abuse item but it was squashed into a corner and a didnt really absorb it. That is one of the big concern is that a lot of viewers got in touch with. The abuse enquiry maybe should have been believed. People should have been believed. People should it could should have been the third story in the headline. Indeed, the ten oclock news didnt lead on oscars, the six oclock news did. One thing to pick up, it was the moche most watched, shared, viewed item across the week. We hear that a lot on it newsweek. It is the audience to the bulletin as well as the audience online. When they tune m, the audience online. When they tune in, they want the bbc to tell them what the most important stories in in the right order and i think you failed. Youre correct order is going to be different to mine, to marys and all the people that have been writing and text in in. It is asa been writing and text in in. It is as a active matter, it is not objective. There is no correct order. What would have been incorrect is if we hadnt covered the sexual abuse enquiry and had previewed it on the ten oclock news the night before. In the mix, you have to have a range of stories but what news cannot beat it news about death tolls in Descending Order is all disasters in Descending Order. It isa all disasters in Descending Order. It is a range, and mix. It seems the bbc is tried to keep up with social media where these kinds of stories have huge traction and you can read our lot. I suppose some in the audience say it is not the bbcs business to try and compete with that social media led world. Business to try and compete with that social media led Worldm Business to try and compete with that social media led world. It is bbc newss role surely is that we should be covering a lot of things. People think we shouldnt be covering sport and other people think that we absolutely should. The same with politics. There will be many that say we dont get into the nitty gritty enough and some that think we bang on too much. It is about the right mix. The other issue is that this has gone on all week. There was a mixture in the envelope, then some detail about how but that is it. On thursday and friday it felt as though it was again just dominating a lot of airtime about these Accountancy Workers getting bodyguards and are they going to work again at the oscars. People say it was not warranted, that amount. Did it, take dominate airtime Question Mark really . One of the big criticisms and a justified one of bbc and media generally is that we cannot do enough on some story and then Thejuggernaut Cannot do enough on some story and then the Juggernaut Moves on and what ever happened in this that event . With this we are saying that whoever is interested in this story and there are a great number who were, here is the next iteration of it. If it had been the lead story across four, five, days, i would hold up my hand and say we had gone over the top. Final word to use, mary, what you think of what you have heard and what could be better next time . Over the weeks newswatch, we have had lots and lots of items and complaint about the news actually putting their emphasis on showbiz things. My view is that, you know, please, the majority of your viewers are licensed payers, they wa nt to viewers are licensed payers, they want to switch on and see a very balanced view of the news and i do not think that you are providing it and please, please, will you try and make the p bbc Head And Shoulders above the rest. Mary kavanagh and gavin, thank you both very much. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on what you have heard in this programme run any aspect of bbc news. I will let you know how to contact us at shortly. Time for a couple more of your comments about what you have seen this week. There we re what you have seen this week. There were some reaction on thursday to this story headlined here on the news channel. A bbc investigation has discovered that almost 4000 motorists as day in england are fined for driving in bus lanes. The most lucrative camera makes £6,000 every day. That word lucrative which also featured on the bbc news websites list of englands most lucrative Bus Lane Cameras infuriated this person which felt the reporting emphasised motorists complaints about councils making money for the cameras. On tuesday, an inquest into the deaths of 30 british tourists killed in the gun attack in tunisia in 2015 found they were unlawfully killed. The finding was widely covered on bbc news that James Franklin from stirling e mailed us his objection to the way it was treated. Yes, it gave a human story but to spend so long on such a harrowing topic was nauseating. Show them some respect. Thank you for all your comments this week. Please share with us your opinions on bbc News Current Affairs when they feature them on the programme or you can leave an opinion personally. You can post your thoughts on twitter and do have a look at our website where you can search for and what previous discussions. That is all from us. We will be back to heal thoughts on bbc News Coverage again next week. Goodbye. Hear good morning. For most of us, friday was a miserable day but, for the favoured few, it was glorious. If you dont believe me, look at the weather watchers picture. Not a cloud in the sky hardly. A Beautiful Day across the far north of scotland. But for most of us it was grey and grim. A lot of heavy rain around and this poor old garden in barnsley, well, that tells the tale, doesnt it, really, and it could be a Soggy Affairfor some of us over the weekend. But not all the time. There will be some rain around but some of us could manage to get some dry weather in there as well. Particularly when you look at where the low pressure is. Its centred to the north across scotland and circulating around that low on the outer edge there will be some stronger winds but further inland we should get a decent slice of dryer weather. So do try to put that in context. It looks as though scotland, you will have a different day today. There will be a lot of cloud, rain around, snow to the tops of mountains, it will be cold as well. Showery outbreaks of rain into Northern Ireland and a fair amount of cloud across northern england. Just head a little further south and first thing on saturday morning its not a bad start for wales and much of central and southern england. Into the far south west it will be windy and wet at times. The strongest of the winds circulating around the outside edge of that area of low pressure. But a central and eastern parts of england, for you, not a bad day. There should be a decent slice of sunshine coming through. And, with a little shelter, some sunshine, those temperatures will feel reasonable at around ten or 12 degrees. Not so the case with the cloud and rain further north. But it does mean for many of the premiership matches it looks as though it will be a largely dry affair. We could see some showers for the liverpool arsenal evening kickoff there. Now as we move out of saturday, we were talking about the potential for the Stormy Weather across the alps, still the risk of snow, significant snow to come, but for us a frontal system pushing into the far south west brings a different story on sunday. For many it will be a pretty grim start to the second half of the weekend with some heavy rain moving its way steadily north and east as we go through the day, and the winds increasing as well. So itll be a dismal start but a slow improvement, so i suspect for the tottenham match hopefully the bulk of the rain will clear away but sunderland man city could be a soggy affair. As we move into monday and tuesday it looks as though we will continue to see an unsettled spell of weather. Quite cloudy but largely dry perhaps down to the south. A very warm welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to our viewers in North America and around the globe. My name is lebo diseko.
