One of the stories on this morning's Newsround was about Nick Jonas participating in an American softball game. The rather baffling report included a short clip from an interview with Nick whose softball team, it seems, lost to a team with an American Idol winner called Jordin Sparks.

Below is the complete list of stories from all nine of yesterday's Newsround TV bulletins. There was no mention of Britain's Joe McElderry, who won ITV's Popstar to Operastar on Sunday evening. Former Bucks Fizz star Cheryl Baker was the runner-up.



Does anyone seriously believe that CBBC would not have reported the result had, say, Olly Murs taken part and won? (see blog on 6 June 2011)
