Stand off over Northern Ireland parade - everything we know
A parade dispute took off. Sky News' explainer on a standoff over a Northern Ireland parade passed 150,000 views within a day of going up. It opened at roughly sixteen times the pace a new upload on the channel usually manages.
That is a big gap for a channel that already draws steady daily traffic across its whole catalog. The comment section is unusually lively for the number of likes, which suggests people wanted to talk as well as watch.
Parades in Northern Ireland have long been a sensitive subject. The title promises the full picture rather than a single clip, the kind of catch-up format Sky News uses when a story is still unfolding.
