I’d like to see a refresh, I’ve never really liked this current package. Looks, unfinished.

I’d like to see the pkg being a bit more dynamic. Perhaps a bit of blue on the supers. And they should bring back an element of the iconic abc tv news theme from the 90s for top of the hour openers.

Does anyone know were and what Fran Kelly is doing now. I heard an interview of Fran Kelly with Bill Shorten talking about the NDIS, but when trying to search for the podcast, I got a whole heap of articles about her leaving ABC RN Breakfast. I was under the impression that she was now doing RN drive, which seems to be airing with Andy Park. So still can’t find Fran Kelly’s program page.

Speers said on Insiders said he’d be joining the local presenters… so I wonder which market order it’ll be on the east coast.
