Sky News has also come in for criticism as the channel stuck with the feed even through technical difficulties. Live news broadcasters often dedicate substantial amounts of airtime to press conferences for 24-hour rolling news coverage but do not always show the full event. For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. “Anyone watching or reading BBC News today would have seen the coverage of the Liberal Democrat party conference, which included Ed Davey’s attacks and counterpoints to Nigel Farage and his party’s policies.”Sky News did not comment. Reform UK were approached for comment.
