Newswatch. Hello and welcome to Newswatch with me, at Samira Ahmed. | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
A cultural landmark where they of serious treatment, the launch of | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
Grand Theft Auto 5 puts their attitude of video games under the | :00:25. | :00:31. | |
spotlight. Coverage of the Scottish independence debate means an | :00:31. | :00:39. | |
English backlash. I am worried the BBC will flood us with pot is | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
essentially a Scottish issue. What is he holding in his hands? —— what | :00:44. | :00:54. | |
is essentially. It is the latest in a franchise which has already sold | :00:54. | :01:07. | |
5 had its release on Tuesday. 5 had its release on Tuesday. | :01:07. | :01:14. | |
Midnight and crowds rushed to get their hands on what could well be | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
the biggest selling entertainment product of all time. It is not an | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
album or a movie but a game that fans have been desperate to play. I | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
have been here since a 5 o'clock this morning. I am a bit tired but | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
I am looking forward to I am looking forward to getting my | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
hands on the game. It is a violent, 18 rated game with extraordinary | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
graphics and a cinematic sweep. Ed graphics and a cinematic sweep. Ed | :01:38. | :01:44. | |

Others believe the media has been slow to take seriously what they | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
This tweet came in. To discuss how the BBC covers video | :02:10. | :02:40. | |
games like this, I am joined by Rory Cellan—Jones himself. We know | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
that video—game coverage does that video—game coverage does | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
divide the audience. Some think it is irrelevant and for others it is | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
a normal part of leisure activity. How do you construct coverage? It | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
is difficult. The coverage has changed the stub years ago I found | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
it difficult to get on a story about video games that was not | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
about violence, not about a threat to children's well—being. Nowadays | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
it is slightly easier to get it is slightly easier to get | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
coverage of the game — a game such as Grand Theft Auto as the major | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
business and cultural event. When you think about that launch this | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
week, it did turn out to be the biggest, single entertainment | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
important business story and, important business story and, | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
according to a lot of the Games to viewers who are now becoming a more | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
established breed, it was a cultural high point in the history | :03:34. | :03:45. | |
of games. —— games reviewers. One concern is the business side of it, | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
of games. —— games reviewers. One a lot of these games are 18 | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
certificate and buries a lot of violence and quite misogynistic | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
violence. I was keen to put in the content. —— there is a lot of | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
violence. I was keen to put in the script this | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
game and should not be played by game and should not | :04:06. | :04:16. | |
into add coverage. There is a concern with the business side that | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
the big launches like the Apple launch, the BBC news coverage could | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
just be part of the PR. I get that concern from editors all the time. | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
Every time the new technology story they're | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
just another product launch. I just | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
point back to events like the point back to events like the | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
launch of the launch of the first iPhone in 2007. | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
It was a major turning point in It was a major turning point in the | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
whole industry. It changed the way we live and brought about a whole | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
new way of using the internet on the move. It would have been a | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
mistake just to mistake just to say that is a | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
product Lord and we must not cover it. We have to be choosy and have | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
decide which of them are actually turning points in the way we use | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
them. I can remember a few years ago a lot of news coverage of | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
them. I can remember a few years things like Second Life. That has | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
died with her trace. When should we be covering some of these emerging | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
technologies? You only have to look back at Old episodes of tomorrow's | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
world. Some of them are part of every day lives and part of them | :05:34. | :05:44. | |
never took off. Sometimes I go, while, that really is going to | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
change our lives! Sometimes I am completely wrong. I think it is | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
worth trying to push to try to get more of those stories on to our | :05:54. | :06:01. | |
coverage. Why is it sometimes hard? Are some editors old fashioned | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
and entertainment? There is a lack and entertainment? There is a lack | :06:05. | :06:13. | |
of a newspaper. Wearable technology is the next big thing. Where to | :06:13. | :06:21. | |
the news? —— Where do I get? It is the news? —— Where do I get? It is | :06:21. | :06:28. | |
quite difficult to get them past editors. I am only interested in | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
what is happening what is happening today. A need to | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
show an event they can build a story around. —— I need. Thank you. | :06:37. | :06:41. | |

the programme. —— details. There was a Panorama special broadcast | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
this week. It was apparent concerns against South African police over | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
Shrien Dewani. Reports were shown on BBC news before it went out. | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
Panorama has discovered that statements from three key witnesses | :07:09. | :07:12. | |

their testimony appeared to their testimony appeared to | :07:15. | :07:19. | |

police files. It gives accounts of police files. It gives accounts of | :07:21. | :07:30. | |
calls that did not happen and video evidence to disprove this. The | :07:30. | :07:37. | |

coverage of the build up to the referendum on Scottish independence. | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
Wednesday marked a year to the vote and the arguments for and against | :08:12. | :08:12. | |
the With a year to go it was a good time | :08:12. | :09:15. | |
to do some reports. My worry is that somebody living south of the border | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
who has got absolutely no way of influencing the outcome of the | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
election, I am worried that the BBC election, I am worried that the BBC | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
are going to flood us with are going to flood us with is | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
essentially Scottish issues. We present is often feel the need to | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
hold onto things for a sense of security. Back—up scripts come a pen | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
or often a computer tablet. The choice of one news presenter has | :09:39. | :09:48. | |
become an Internet sensation. Welcome to BBC News. Plans were | :09:48. | :09:55. | |

high—tech billy refilled pack of paper. The spokesman confirmed that | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
