Not sure what you are talking about. I copied this from
WETA: 6:00 pm BBC World News

That's not the World Service. The BBCWS is a seperate entitiy with
what are regarded as much higher standards than the rest of the BBC.

The distinction is not readily apparent to me in the programming I have
seen on public television or the broadcsts I've heard.
