Bloomberg channel.

The Bloomberg channel this week has changed its appearance to what now looks like a web page with the actual programme taking up about 30% of the tv screen.

Does anyone know if this is a temporary issue or a permanent change to the channel.

Thanks.

In the US there are two versions of Bloomberg, the programmes are the same but one of them has much more graphs/information on screen. It looks like the UK/European feed has switched to that version this week. It may just be temporary due to the market turmoil.

I asked Bloomberg as I was curious. I did specify that this was on Sky in the UK & Ireland. They said:

"This is the normal Bloomberg TV style stream you will be seeing."

So this is the new permanent version and will not be changing back.

The normal version is what we used to have until earlier this week. The current on screen style is known as Bloomberg TV+ in the US and features lots of extra graphs and text on screen, with the video feed reduced to a much smaller box.

Have to agree.

It is quite a change of layout from many years the same, with a lot more on screen information.

Kind of prefer Myself, as the News sections are a lot easier to read and follow than before.

Plus feel more information is being presented quicker, for a Quick look over.

Hi sad to hear it's a permanent change as I prefer old format especially market data along the bottom of the screen.

There is a live version on youtube that is full screen. Search for Bloomberg Podcasts.
