Shit. Awful news

RIP. Enormous loss. Can’t imagine what his colleagues are going through (and his family of course)- hard to watch their tributes.

Very sad and i feel for his family and wider family in the newsroom

For historical purposes here is how each network covered the sad news.

Very sad watching the tribute on 1News tonight.

Such a great loss as I really liked Greg as a newsreader especially his comments at the end of some stories which gave me a laugh. I was hoping he would replace Peter Williams on the weekend news when he retires at the end of the year.

Same here. A consummate broadcaster who would have taken on that role with aplomb. What a loss.

Depression is such an awful awful thing.

It is some can work their way though this point in life but others find it harder.

This story may be bringing up things for you or others, I would like to remind people that Media Spy has a thread with Australian and NZ contact lines for those who feel they need to contact an outside source from help or think anyone they know might need it.

The thread can be found below.

Simons delivery was Idk how to explain it but very somber. Shows how hard it’s hit the 1 News family.

Took me a while years and years back to get into Greg but he turned out one of my favourites. Loved his one liners and sarcasm. Sad loss. Respect to his friends family and colleagues.

Can’t think of an obvious replacement now when Simon Dallow eventually calls time on 6pm

Probably got another 10 years plus in him so plenty of time to develop someone. Maybe a Chris Chang?

Looks like former Australian Correspondent Ruth Wynn-Williams has joined the Nine News Sydney team.

Ah studio automation (Mosart, Ignite, Overdrive or whichever system they’re using)

Here are some fun camera fails from the BBC from a few years back.
