STORYFix
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
STORYFix is a television programme on UK news channel BBC News 24. Broadcast since May 2006, it is notable for presenting an alternative view of the week's news. In July 2006 it also became one of the BBC's first video podcasts.
It takes a satirical view of the week's events, with such features as "the week in numbers" and "good week/bad week", often picking on politicians such as John Prescott.
Emily Maitlis is the main presenter of the programme, she is currently on maternity leave so other familiar faces from the BBC including Kate Silverton, Paddy O'Connell, Declan Curry and Louise Minchin are presenting it.
It is available as a video podcast and on the BBC News website, as well as being shown on News 24 (Fridays at 19.50, Saturdays at 13.50 amongst others) and news interactive via the red button. The editor is Mark Barlex, who is assistant editor of the One O'Clock news and says the project is "uniquely difficult to describe" [1].
