Oh dear, I sort if liked the cruise ship murder series....Problem i have with online news is their obvious agenda, Be it left or right, They don't deal in facts per say, just opinions and have people on that agree with that so you get a audience that only agrees with you and i think Ofcom does not reach online content yet but not 100% sure. You can have a "Saddo" in their bedroom, use a bit of CGI to get a background to look like a busy newsroom to give the impression of "Legitimacy" when in truth they are of the tin foil hat brigade spouting off untruths.
I can agree that the TV companies going after a younger audience in the main is turning off those that actually watch TV, ie older viewers, Soaps are a prime example, Get the main story lines involve only younger cast members and some of the story lines are ridiculous, older viewers will turn off and you only have to look at the viewing figures to prove my point. As isca says C5 do some great documentaries but also great dramas, Other than that awful one set on a cruise ship, They have as you say bucked the trend a bit.
