According to The Australian’s Media Diary, the ABC is poised to sack Greene after months of investigations into the scandal, contending that his attempt of hiding the junket had caused ­irreparable trust and confidence issues. However, the broadcaster has sought external advice before finalising Greene’s termination, fearing a repeat of Antoinette Lattouf saga.

Another reason why I simply barely watch news here anymore. It’s just nonsense. Sad really.

Dan Bourchier has left the ABC:

After almost nine massive years at the ABC, I’ve decided it’s time for me to move on.
It’s been my absolute privilege to spend most of the last decade on ABC screens and airwaves, and working behind the scenes, to create space to hopefully help us all understand each other, our country and our world a little better.
I’m particularly proud of the work I’ve helped to drive to increase Indigenous representation internally, and create the space for other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to tell their stories in their way.
I’ve been able to do this because of the support, mentoring and opportunities from some extraordinary colleagues.
While leaving is hard, I’m optimistic about the future of the ABC I say goodbye to, and the tremendous leadership across the organisation.
Thank you to the loyal audience who has supported, challenged, and backed me. We’ve navigated some of the some tumultuous news and change of the last decade, together. It’s made me a better journalist, and a better leader.

Can’t say I’m sad about that. I tried watching Weekend Breakfast and I just can’t stand it with him and all the extra accessories he has to wear.

I wonder if they are going to replace him on mornings or just have the casuals do it for the rest of the year considering that he was only on Thursdays and fridays and he was rarely on the show

I assume Gemma would just take Thursday and Friday, considering she does currently and she is the only person on the Iview page.

Melissa Mackay, Lorna Dunkley and meridith Sheehan have been doing it lately, wouldn’t be surprised if Melissa becomes the permanent replacement
