The River of Newsnight

As well as the traditional broadcast version of Newsnight being curtailed for August (down to 30 minutes), the alternative online news service from its battery of correspondents, producers, assistant editors and editors is reduced from a river to a trickle.

Newsnight Live ('Updates and analysis throughout the day from the Newsnight team') has kept going with an odd daily original piece, a recorded clip of the previous night's show (live ?) and a silly season quiz. Not quite a live blog as we know it.

    But it shows on one that's date-stamped:
