Only the BBC were sensationalising the weather story? No newspapers? No other rolling news services? Just the BBC who take their info from the Met Office like all the others?
As for the ship story, but sorry, what is your 'kin point? That the BBC didn't individually name each and everyone? Why should they? What would it prove or achieve? A ship went down, sailors were lost, it's sad but the story is really in their homeland, not ours.
