Terror probe latest updates as suspects are pictured and robot fires at van
"Terror probe latest updates as suspects are pictured and robot fires at van" has already passed 140,000 views, and it has been up for barely a day.
That pace is well outside the channel's routine. A new Sky News upload usually has a modest first day before the next bulletin takes its place. This one is moving many times faster, and on its own it is running at about a fifth of what the entire channel draws in an ordinary day.
The title reads like a rolling update rather than a single report: suspects pictured, a robot firing at a van. Sky News, Britain's 24-hour news channel since 1989, builds much of its output around stories like this as they develop.
A day earlier, a statement from Manchester City's chairman was the upload carrying the channel. Now a hard-news story from the terror probe has taken over.
