6 News Australia

I agree. Also, this camera view is fine for a guest, but seems highly unprofessional for a reporter:

Also, sounds like she is whispering/talking quietly? Just doesn’t sound very reporter-y/professional. Great to see another member of this growing, up-and-coming team.

Holly needs to get a better mic as well.

Otherwise another all-round good bulletin from 6. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

He really is. Watching Connor’s interviews with the public and you would think he was a seasoned reporter. The whole report was so well done.

I’m sure that will improve in time. No one is an expert to start with but it was a great first appearance.

I agree. Leo is building a small army. It is awesome to see them all giving this a go.

What your summer schedule? Will you (Leo) continue to host both 6 Mornings and News or will your reporters job share the role?

Leo mentioned last night that the same schedule will continue over the Christmas period.

That was a very bizarre pile-on yesterday. I think it’s clear that Leo is more mature than many of the adults on social media, that’s for sure…

Yes Leo did a great job yesterday and showed how great of journalist he is.

That’s the best and worse of twitter all wrapped up.

A false claim being corrected - and not just by Leo but the AEC who has one of the best social media teams going around, could’ve been met with a simple acceptance. I mean, I can kind of see what she was getting at regarding “speculation”, but am acknowledgement of the facts as they were presented by the AEC and Leo, she could still have managed to conveye the same vibe but acknowledged how unlikely it would be.

The hyper partisan nature of twitter really does suck, and unfortunately if you follow Leo, you get to see both extremes of the spectrum. Muting is a handy feature.

We updated the lower thirds on Mornings! Check it out below - along with Connor’s first time presenting the program:

Was the video done over zoom?

I really like the new lower thirds, but this annoys me:

I think this needs to match up.

I came across this on Twitter yesterday (didnt help that one of the people involved in the pile-on took their bullshit to a blog) - his fact-checking has really got people riled up.

Interested to know where you’re receiving livestreams for Australian press conferences from. Are you attending the Perrottet and Morrison press conferences?

Hi there!

We have access to some feeds which we take and stream directly to our YouTube Channel. Hope this helps!

One had the ABC News logo and subtitles on it before picture went blank and it disappeared (likely just turned off logo and subtitles in YouTube settings). Are you just taking these videos from other media outlets?

A new drop for your Thursday morning. Let us know your thoughts on the bulletin !

Yes, they are. They’re not there livestreaming the press conferences themselves (and understandably given the strict media security clearance at these events).

So a credit to whoever they’re re-streaming from probably wouldn’t go astray?
