I think that would be great for The Project. But I’m not sure 10 have the legal / insurance costs to have their staff enter a war zone. Hence why Paul is on the border of Poland.
Seven / Nine / ABC / SBS seem to be geared up for situations like this.
That discussion ended up happening in another thread, so I’ll refer you there rather than derailing this thread again. My thoughts and quite a bit of discussion started at Russia and Ukraine Conflict - #30 by SamuelGS
At the moment all channels in Ukraine, with the exeption of the main channel of the public broadcaster UA: Pershyi, for the most part take the feed of RadaTV (formerly the Parliamentary TV channel, now 24/7 news station). All participating broadcasters provide footage and take turns with the studio segments.
So if the feed of Kanal24 goes down you also can go to any other Ukranian broadcaster and see the same. 1+1 and ICTV also have youtube streams running.
As part of this telethon-style broadcast, there’s is an hourly news report which is actually being co-produced by Rada TV and Suspilne (UA:PBC). Initially called #UArazom (#UAstrong), since Saturday it is called Yedyni novyny (United News), and acquired a new graphics package designed by the in-house design team at ICTV and its owner StarLightMedia. The program airs once every hour on all national TV channels, as a round-up of the latest developments on the crisis. Then, UA:Pershyi and Rada TV (taken by most commercial channels) continue with their own broadcasts.
According to TV Tonight, SBS Viceland will air a special episode of Vice News Tonight on the conflict (referred to in the Deadline article last Friday) this Wednesday, March 2, at 8.30pm.
Deadline reports British regulator Ofcom has launched 15 investigations into Russia Today channel following hundreds of complaints over impartiality in covering the conflict. The investigations related to 15 editions of the hourly News program broadcast on Sunday.
