Welcome. Objections that the BBC's coverage of the plane crash in | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
Ukraine has been insensitive and intrusive. It is going to be a | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
festival of sport that will be enjoyed and watched by millions | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
around the world. The Commonwealth Games is not enjoyed by every viewer | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
of the Commonwealth Games is not enjoyed by every viewer of BBC News. | :00:40. | :00:53. | |
The crash of flight MH17 has been fully examined over the past week or | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
so on the BBC News. Some of the images showed made for strong | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
feeling. Here are some other excerpts from the output from us | :01:02. | :01:09. | |
weekend, which some viewers might find distressing. Off`duty miners | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
were searching for more bodies. Each is marked with a makeshift stick | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
with a white rag tied to it. In some cases, there is a forest of markers, | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
indicated that struck indicating where passengers alive. There are | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
around 100 bodies that are still missing. Scattered across the | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
ground, the wreckage of flight MH17. This, the cockpit of the plane. And | :01:35. | :01:42. | |
here, the belongings of the travellers. On holidays, business, | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
moving home. The end of all plans and possibilities. Finally, the | :01:48. | :01:56. | |
first international investigators to arrive. The scene of so much death, | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
and a grim task for forensic experts from Holland regarding `` guarded by | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
rebel gunmen. The idea is to move all the bodies to Holland for | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
identification, but for now, just moving them out of the war zone | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
would be good. Two of the viewers who contacted as this week about the | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
coverage join me now. Sue is in our Birmingham studio and Gary is also | :02:26. | :02:35. | |
joining us. Can you sum up your concern about the coverage of this | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
crash? It was the fact that it was personal belongings being shown on | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
television, and I've felt that I was very distressed, I cannot imagine | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
how anybody who was directly involved in that situation must have | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
felt. I've felt that anything of a personal nature, whether it be a fax | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
or themselves, it would be a terrible thing for those people to | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
view. What about for you? Aerie similar to Gary. I'd just felt that | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
the whole `` very similar to Gary, I just thought that the coverage | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
showed a total lack of respect for the dads in the bereaved families. | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
Did you have an issue with the showing of the hand? I thought that | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
was in bad taste and overstepped a mark. | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
Syria and other places. There is a a few times, and the coverage | :03:35. | :03:43. | |
sense that they express, that it feels like a free for all at the | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
scene, and the coverage was pushing further and further into going close | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
on possessions and showing parts of bodies. First of all, this was a | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
horrible and terrible event, and the feelings of the families and the | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
wider audience are in our thinking as we cover the story. At the same | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
time, we do have to cover the story, and we have to convey impact in the | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
terror of what happened in eastern Ukraine, and that is why we deployed | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
highly experienced correspondents and reducers, and we have programme | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
editors back in London you are very experienced in getting the balance | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
right between the language, the pitches that we show, and what the | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
audience is able to stake in a story of such | :04:31. | :05:18. | |
you are put in a position, where I've felt it was bordering on | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
voyeurism, and I think that is totally unacceptable. There might be | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
cases where war has a lot of horror, but let's bear in mind that | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
a picture speaks a thousand words, but only if those words were worth | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
saying in the first place. This idea of this lack of respect. We know | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
that one reporter had to apologise for touching object that he had | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
found, and it is the sense that the camera has gone into close, and that | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
is part of the reason why viewers feel it is distressing. In terms of | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
the site itself, BBC correspondents stuck to the permitted roads and | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
routes and were not interfering with evidence there, and that would | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
actually say that teens across the `` teams across journalism and did | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
an important job there in terms of telling viewers and audiences in the | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
UK and around the world that this site was unsupervised and was not | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
being regulated, and it did not appear to be handled in the right | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
and proper way, and they need to find out what happened there and | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
they need to do the right thing by the people and families who were | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
involved in that terrible crash. Some of the specific images which | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
have raised complaints, with the benefit of hindsight, do you think | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
we would show them again? I think our imagery through the coverage has | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
been discussed and carefully considered, and I think this was an | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
unprecedented story in terms of its shock in the trauma around it, and | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
I'd think that we were well judged, but I will accept that some parts of | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
the audience will think that maybe there was something we should not | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
have said or shown. Thank you all for joining us. | :07:13. | :07:22. | |
Let us know your thoughts on the coverage of the plane crash in | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
Ukraine or any aspects of BBC News. After a brief rest in sports related | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
complaints, you have also been sending us your views about the | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
extent to which the Commonwealth Games have fissured the structure of | :07:37. | :07:45. | |
`` had featured on the news channel. This is where it will all kick off, | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
Scotland's biggest football stadium, with what promises to be a | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
spectacular opening ceremony in the presence of the Queen. The and | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
higher South stand has been transformed with a giant screen. `` | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
the entire. They are calling it Glasgow's we know on the | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
Commonwealth. The eyes of the world will be on this CD as Glasgow | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
Commonwealth Games in history. `` on Commonwealth Games in history. `` on | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
this city. A graphics extravaganza, but some you beers `` viewers | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
wonder... On Wednesday, the Games got | :08:25. | :08:42. | |
underway, and that evening, while the opening ceremony was being shown | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
on BBC One, and the news channel, the paper review was about to come | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
to a premature end. We think it is high time that interest rates | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
started to rise. I am sorry to interrupt you, but we have got this | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
Commonwealth Games ceremony going on and we just want to take a look at | :09:00. | :09:07. | |
it. Terrific to see him here... In fact, it was more than an hour | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
before the channel returned to the studio, punting a number of | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
complaints. Firstly, a question about the caption at the bottom of | :09:17. | :09:17. | |
the screen `` the screen there. That was not the end of the Games | :09:18. | :10:10. | |
related objections. Breakfast has decamped to Glasgow for the duration | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
of the Glasgow games. Here is Adam Church Hill. | :10:15. | :10:27. | |
We put that point to the breakfast show and were told... | :10:28. | :10:52. | |
Because of the coverage of the Commonwealth Games, this week in | :10:53. | :10:59. | |
Mexico's programme will not be repeated as normal on BBC One, but | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
we are back at 845 on Friday evening on the BBC News Channel, and you can | :11:04. | :11:10. | |
always watch us on the I player. Your opinion could feature on that | :11:11. | :11:17. | |

England have faded away now, and temperatures are going to | :11:49. | :11:50. |
