Where the presenter sits makes zero difference to the content of the show. It’d still all be controlled centrally.
I couldn’t think of a more ‘switch-off’ educing duo in the morning.
Can Ben just decide if he wants to be rightwing shock-jock or a proper TV journalist!

Wendy will be missed but given she moved to Queensland maybe she will take up a role in the Brisbane or Gold Coast newsroom and occasional national fill-in?
[/quote] I would be more than pleased if she anchored the weekend news, hosted the Local daytime News, present a possible future weekend local Gold Coast news, present the local news (replacing Win News) for Queensland or present local news for Queensland for Today (like Today Perth News). So many possibilities for such a talented presenter.

Lara Vella’s twitter account has this beneath her name: @9NewsAus Early Edition
[/quote] She has always had that ever since she started to fill-in.

Nine News Sydney reporter Mark Burrows is presenting today’s Morning and Afternoon News…has he ever presented a full news bulletin before?
[/quote] The Morning News Opener. He didn’t do too bad- much better than Ben Fordham that’s for sure- but sure there are other staff? Jayne Azzopardi, Peter Stefanovic, Natalia Cooper, Deborah Knight or Brett McLeod?
gosh you are young.
He’s previously been a regular morning news presenter (a role shared with Kim Watkins) and he was also news presenter for Today On Saturday.
As for the inevitable speculation about a maternity leave fill-in for Amelia, personally I hope (although realistically it probably won’t happen, with her new role on Weekend Today and all) that Jayne Azzopardi gets the role!
Thursday (02.06.16)- Friday (03.06.16): Kate Creedon presented the Early News.

Amelia Adams today announced that she is pregnant with her second child.
[/quote] Hence all the mornings off. Congrats anyways to Amelia.

[/quote] As you mentioned, Jayne is unlikely to get the role given due to her commitments to Today. Other than the summer-fill-ins, I expect Davina Smith to have returned by early 2017. As for Nine News Now, the current system of Amber Sherlock/Natalia Cooper I suspect will continue.
