Discussion of media coverage of Queensland State Election to be held 26 October 2024.

With recent changes in TV News, it will be interesting to see how the night is covered. Who will anchor Seven’s night and is there a chance that 10 might run some coverage.

Nine has started promos that included TV, radio and on-line.

You forgot most important question of all though - what crappy cross promotion gimmick will Nine use to kick out the politicians who lose their seats 😉

Apart from that, Seven will probably do something worse than last time where they presented from Parliament House on couches, and included a top 20 moments countdown.

I’m going to try and tape as many Queensland State Election commercials - from Brisbane and across Regional QLD. Expect a mega-compilation of these ads in the coming months.

I wonder if there will be a massive advertising campaign blitz from Clive Palmer’s UAP party again?

I highly doubt it given the party is, for all intents and purposes, dead.

The Greens will be prominent in Brisbane I’m sure, working with the LNP to oust Labor.

Seven will probably need to bring Mark Riley up from Canberra.

Given he also does the Screen of “Dreams” type stuff, no doubt they are going to ship him up.

Wouldn’t they normally? Like he’s been on deck for most state elections.

ABC prediction:

will be hosted by one of their Queensland affiliates maybe David Speers on panel.

Panellists:  
ALP - Anthony Chisolm & Cameron Dick  
LNP - Susan McDonald & David Janetzki  
GRN - Max Chandler-Mather.

Insiders on Sunday:  
Guest - Peter Dutton?

My guess is Ellen Fanning will be involved somewhere, given she is apparently going to be doing special reports for the election on local radio.

Jessica Van Vondren is also another name - hosted coverage in 2017, and 2020.

Also no doubt Antony Green is going to be there as well.

Hopefully they’ll choose someone from the Greens a bit more moderate and less nasty than Max presents.

I really hope they bring back the call of the board. Run down of all state seats on the night I think last one attempted was Victoria 2018?

Yep was last attempted in 2018 - however, there were a number of issues with the graphics, which lead to Antony to then try and do it on the touchscreen, before that also started having issues, which lead to the call of the board being abandoned for the night.

they normally set up in the lobby of the ABC at Southbank - they don’t have any studio space big enough to host coverage like this.

This topic is for media coverage of the election campaign. Political adverts should be posted in the State politics area.
