Perhaps a petition about why ITV chose to cover a tennis match rather

Have you thought about how many cameras and cameramen are needed to
cover an event like this?


I bet Sky News did it with a quarter of the resources expended by the
BBC and still produced much better coverage.


Given they were both using the same event cameras that seems unlikely.
