I can't understand why reporters have to be "At the scene" for many reports. Some idiiot footballer breaks his toe; a breathless and overawed reporter is found standing outside a large building (Hospital?) in the dark saying that Fragile Fred is somewhere in there with a broken toe, then we ciut to a large sign reading "Grantford General Hospital", further breathless and boring non-information, camera zooms into a particular window where the great one may, or may not, be on his bed of pain. Total waste of time and people. The report has no more credilbility because it is delivered from the scene of such a non-event. Same with the recent prison riots - reporter outside a prison saying there is a riot going on inside. No pictures of rioters or damage, just a man saying the authorities are trying to regain control. BORING!!!!!
