‘Brexit-free’ TV channel!
A British broadcaster will launch a new “pop-up channel” dedicated to Brexit-free coverage, in a bid to attract viewers tired of hearing about the divisive issue. Sky News Brexit-Free, which was schedule to go live at 1600 GMT (5:00 pm local time) yesterday, has been set up after surveys showed Britons are avoiding the news due to fatigue with the arguments over Britain’s fractious withdrawal from the EU. It will air for five hours from the same time every workday. The broadcaster’s main free-to-air news channel will continue to cover Brexit, with negotiations ongoing before the country’s planned October 31 departure date from the European Union.
