It`s so ###### these days. I was flicking between channels and noticed that Sky News on Freeview had broken the Heath Ledger death around ten to ten - nothing on the main headlines over on the main channel a few minutes later.

CH4 News is different league in every way.

Sky "Breaking" News is notorious though.

There motto appears to be break it first (whether it is news or not) and worry about the facts sometime later.

Very sad news btw - seriously talented actor.

Very, very sad news. He was a brilliant actor, and so young. Such a waste. I thought he was great.

If you can believe anything Sky News says (I don't tend to but as Euro says, only the breaking news strapline is coming up on BBC) it appears as though he took an overdose of prescription pills. Even more tragic when you hear that he hated the fame that came with his career.

Bit like Dennis Bergkamp training to be a pilot...
