Certainly seemed like it tonight, with this awkward and abrupt end to the bulletin:
That 11pm news on 24 comes from Melbourne
17/08/2018:
Gloria Kalache presenting The World.
Haven’t seen the news channel go full yellow for a while

I wouldn’t mind the top strap and bit that wraps around the side yellow, but the bottom strap and little box in the corner should just be black IMO.

Agree. And then the “Alert” box could be yellow.

Not too sure where to put this, so I’ll just put it here.
Graphic up on the ABC News website.

Dear lord the studio looks terrible! The lighting is hideous, the screen burn in is incredibly bad and there is constaning banging noises going to air in the background.
At least install some led lighting and then replace the screens!
On air it seems as though it’s filthy!
New presenter on the ABC News channel today? She’s amazing… Looks to have come from the BBC?

She’s fantastic, incredibly better than just about every other presenter on the channel.

Would be quite a culture shock going from very glitzy Sky News to shoestring budgeted ABC News where everything is held together with duct tape.

So for those wondering why such a high profile TV presenter would leave and move to Australia, here’s a bit of quick research.
Her husband (who she met at ITV Westcountry) was the director of programming at At The Races (a horse racing Sky Sports channel in the UK) and then a CEO of a company that supplied outside broadcasting facilities to racecourses in the UK.
Then in 2016 he moved here with his wife and became the head of media at Tabcorp (i.e. Sky Racing). So there you go.

Couple of bloopers from last night:
