Wingwatch: On 6 June 1944 it was lost in Normandy. It is still there. Waiting for someone to bring it back home

GB News Radio’s audience is growing but is still lower than its commercial competitors. In May, the channel bragged about its radio audience growingby 4 percent to reach an average 319,000 people a week, whose total listening hours were up by 23 percent in the first three months of 2023 compared to Q4 of 2022. According to the station, its ‘hugely loyal following’ is the ‘highest of all news and current affairs broadcasters.’ In an attempt to offer an explanation about how GB News became Savanta’s most-loved news brand, Shaun Austin, Head of Media at Savanta, said the network also scored highly when it came to the most ‘hated’ brand. Of course, that particular metric didn’t make it into the right-wing media’s gushing reports on the poll. But is filling its airwaves with big ‘straight-talking’ names spouting their Brexit-loving, culture war-stoking, right-wing propagandistic views winning over viewers?

The demise of DeSantis and his woke-bashing crusade could and should provide valuable lessons for politicians in Britain, where a similar ‘war against woke’ has been gaining momentum. We also made some major changes to our core analysis framework after Springwatch. We refactored and streamlined our core code to improve performance and reliability and increase flexibility. We also integrated with the Cloud-fit Productionteam's media store services. This meant that we could offload the video ingest and recording to Cloud-fit's tools rather than our analysis code ingesting all footage and holding the responsibility for recording moments of interest. This approach's benefit was that the Cloud-fit system constantly recorded all footage from the feeds we were analysing, and our analysis tools could refer to footage ingested over any time range. This allowed us to provide some custom functionality for the digital team, such as recording a beautiful time-lapse or creating custom length clips. The quality of the video and audio recordings were also significantly improved as a result. Amid the economic carnage, things are looking pretty glum for Andrew Bailey too. The Bank of England governor has been the focus of some unflattering headlines this week. But days before the strike could expire, the YouTube channel was hit with another strike for a video it uploaded eight years ago, he said. That video included anti-gay comments made by Christian radio host Bryan Fischer, according to the 2013 blog post that accompanied the video.

We filter the data to ensure that any species suggestions are as accurate as possible and to minimise misclassifications. This higher accuracy means that the system will discard bird visits where it is less sure on the species. We then provide this data through to the public video player. Senior Tories and economists turned on the Bank of England last night as it prepared to heap more misery on homeowners,” the article continued. Surely, if the Prime Minister decided to ‘own’ the promise to halve inflation, how can it solely be the fault of the Bank of England? We made some improvements to the production teams' user interface, including the ability to highlight and comment on clips and a more streamlined way of selecting a date and time range of interest. We also created a new management user interface to start, stop, and modify the analysis on different cameras and control our custom machine learning services. The long-term aim is for this to be a self-service tool for productions, reducing the technical knowledge required to run and maintain it. What Next?

Our team in BBC R&D has been investigating how computer vision and machine learning - often referred to as artificial intelligence or AI - can be used to assist in the production of television. One area in which we have experimented with these ideas is on the Watches (Springwatch, Autumnwatch and Winterwatch) series of programmes produced by the BBC’s Natural History Unit. Here, we have helped the monitoring of the video and audio feeds coming from the many cameras that the production team have placed out in the wild. One of the main trends in British right wing politics over the past decade has been its increasing Americanisation, which Brexit has accelerated, as well as the increasingly obvious political financing of UK think tanks like the IEA, Policy Exchange, Adam Smith Institute and Taxpayers’ Alliance. That said, its growing audience proves there is an appetite for angry, red-faced, overweight white men shouting at the cameras about Meghan Markle and immigrants. But there is also an appetite to throw things at the screen in disbelief if you happen to stumble upon one of Nigel Farage’s or Dan Wootton’s bigoted rants by mistake. How many of GB News’ audience constitute such political masochists, who knows? By-elections are not generally very good news for governing parties who are going through tough economic times. However, losing two MPs because one was convicted of sexual assaulting a child and the other admitted to looking at porn in the House of Commons probably didn’t help the final vote counts for the Tories in Wakefield and Tiverton and Honiton, which were lost to Labour and the Lib Dems respectively.In case you missed it, June 13 marked GB News’ two-year anniversary. Beset with hitches and controversies from day one, the ‘news’ channel that brings Fox-style biased coverage offered by a range of pro-Brexit, right-wing, and, in some cases, Covid-conspiracist presenters, limped to its second birthday.
