The Rotterdam scandal was the first in the order it caught the attention of people when switching on the channel.As the average viewer     of the this program has children which means that this "child abuse" would be 

concerning to them as they care about their children and the scandal is putting their children at risk.So therefore this story catches their attention.
Second in the list is the doctor who died from a new infection of virus callled ebola. Although this is a virus which is based in Africa,it concerns the people here in the UK as African People in the UK might have family in Africa.Which puts them at a risk,therefore it is concerning.The  mortgage rates have risen.This engages people who are buying house as it concerns them.

  1. WWW: You have picked out some good information about the BBC but this also lacks detail and accuracy in key places.
    EBI: The BBC 5pm News is only on the BBC News channel - you should have made this clear. Surely choosing one of the BBC1 bulletins would have made more sense? You've also made basic errors (Rotterdam rather than Rotherham) and you fail to explain the running order of the last two programmes you list. Raise your game!
    LR: Do you regularly watch the programme you researched? Why/why not? Where do you get your news from? Answer in a comment below.

  2. I do not watch the problem I researched because of how it is formatted.At the start,the presenter states all the news in a very short summary and then he/she goes into detail on all of the news. Usually the most interesting news is at the end.Which means i have to watch the whole program to the end to get informed on the news i want.This takes a lot of time so therefore i go on Sky news and "press the red button" as i can choose and click on the news I am interested in.
