I wonder why the split screen was needed as they were standing within an arms length of each other.

How old is Zac Kirkup?
He seems very young.
Edit: I just googled it. He’s only 34 years old.

Analysis’ wise the ABCs coverage is good but other than that it’s actually pretty boring and poorly compiled. So hearing something like that I’m not surprised.
Absolutely, a lot of the content coming out of the West Australian and Sunday Times (Perth Now) has some association or promotion of 7 shows or personalities. Their reporting of other networks is highly bias too.
It’s quite concerning considering 7 has such a large dominance in WA so they can say what they want and everyone believes them.

Judging by the wording of the press release, it seems like Jane & Antony will be in WA after all for the election coverage

Reading that is could still mean that Antony presents his analysis from Sydney.

Seven isn’t even bothering inside Liberal HQ on the ads! Just Rick at Labor HQ.

Antony has previously said he’ll be presenting from Sydney.

I realise that. However, it was speculated based on the media release that he would be in WA.
I was saying that wasn’t necessarily the case.

New entrant for Saturday’s election: Me presenting Ngaarda Radio’s election coverage live from the Pilbara from 6pm.
I’ve been told it’s a historic occasion, so I’m really excited to be doing this.

So, does Zak concede defeat on election night, given he’s already essentially conceded defeat?
