Covering Sky News seems to be further litigating variations of a theme - I don’t think there’s been a “new” issue raised about Sky News for some time now.
It’s basically all the same - Sky News is right wing, spouting out the wrong crap, yada yada. They could do a special all about Sky and that could do them for a while.

Notice:
Sky News captions
Media Watch: On 2 October Media Watch broadcast a story about Michael Pezzullo. The story featured several examples of Mr Pezzullo’s name being miscaptioned in auto-generated captions, which it said occurred “on Sky News”. In fact, the miscaptioning occurred in several Sky News videos published on the MSN website. The same errors did not occur in the broadcast versions of the same content, or on the Sky News website. Media Watch should have attributed the errors to MSN, not Sky News. Note: An earlier version of this correction stated that the miscaptioned videos had been published on the Sky News website. This was incorrect.
Season final is at 8.30pm next Monday.

They really need a new presenter, Barry has been doing it so long now and it really needs a fresh voice every few years.

A little surprised no one else has commented, just watched the last ep of MW, using Media Bites as the wrap of the year was kind of jarring, it’s a completely different tone to Media Watch, realise it was probably done as a cross promotion, but think it was a bit of a fail
