That was an awesome look back. It is incredible to see how far Leo has come in a short space of time.
It is hard to believe I have been watching almost from the start. I had found what was then the HMV YouTube channel and was amazed that someone so young was able to put together a professional bulletin with the limited resources Leo had at the time. Kudos to Leo’s dad for supporting him through the early days especially.
Look at where 6 News is now. It may have started as the Leo only show but it is now a team effort with a bunch of very talented people all making a name for themselves. This will, and has already, setup lifelong careers.
What was once Leo’s hobby is now mainstream. Every TV channel has featured Leo and/or 6 News on multiple occasions now. The one-on-one interviews with Morrison and Albanese are something traditional media can’t even get a lot of the time.
Congrats to @Leo_Puglisi6 and all of the 6 News team. It has been awesome to watch you all grow and become the professionals that you are. Looking forward to seeing where this is in another 5 years.

I hope you won’t mind the comparison @Leo_Puglisi6 but between you and Friendlyjordies you’re the vanguard of online journalism in Australia.

Tuned into a live broadcast for the first time in a while and noticed something very odd! Why is a 6 News employee posting this on a broadcast live chat? Isn’t there internal communication channels available? Seems a bit unprofessional and almost like criticism of their own company.

6 News has just aired its first ever face-to-face interview with a sitting Premier or chief minister in Australia. A massive effort to bring it all together. A couple of BTS pics below, plus a link to watch! @RomanMackinnon6

No lapel for Steven?
A great get but he really needed the lapel microphone on him, not the other way around.

A bit unfair for him to be interviewed by all Young Liberal members

Hey @Leo_Puglisi6 what do you use to time the playout to the top of the hour? is it still vMix? Or is it done manually?

It is still vMix although sometimes it’s done manually for various reasons

Teen news anchor says popular news service would’ve never started under kids…
Cool, and if we had better legacy media, 6 News wouldn’t have had anywhere near the cut-through it has had - we can all talk hypotheticals.

Great to see 6 mentioned on 7 tonight.

I’d also think the salient point on the 6 News venture was that as I understand it - was completely in the knowledge and support of parents. Why on earth would there be any role for government on top of that?
There’s valid roles for a “get parental permission” rule - though a 13-15 year old would absolutely be mature enough to make a call on social media risk without that - but a blanket ban is just stupidity. And would absolutely stifle so many young creators who have been able to learn marketable skills through usage of social platforms.
The social media ban should be parents posting photos of their kids without the kid’s permission…
