Darlledu gwasanaeth cyhoeddus yng Nghymru: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gydag academyddion
I apologise, Chair. Do you believe that there are any opportunities within that to expand that sort of operation and look for other opportunities to enhance that more effectively and more strategically, and which people can see on a daily basis?

Darlledu gwasanaeth cyhoeddus yng Nghymru: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gydag academyddion

Yes, and in response to that—you touched on it there—how accurately do UK broadcasters report the news in Wales, to flip that around slightly? I look at ITV, for example. They used to have a half-hour slot in the evening, which has been extended to an hour in…

Thank you very much, Chair. Good morning, everyone, and in particular, Professor Cushion, who I'll be directing the questions on news coverage towards. To start, how sufficient is news coverage within Wales, in your view, and how could it be improved?

Yes, and that's—. Sorry for coming in, but that's the point I'm generally making—that you're right in saying that a lot of the FA Cup coverage has moved on to pay-per-view television, TNT Sports. I made the point over the weekend on my own social media…
