Fair point, was also since reminded that SBS also used to have female newsreaders across the week on a regular basis so amended the post! :slight_smile:

But out of the big three?

Ten currently has female newsreaders locally 5 nights a week plus Natasha Belling on weekends?

While not “big 3”, Southern Cross in Tasmania has Jo Palmer during the week and Rachel Williams on weekends

Back to ABC, Mary Delahunty read ABC News in Melbourne and for a time Sue Macintosh read on weekends

Great to see Tamara being announced as Ian’s successor. Mary is also a great addition to the lineup.

I remember when Mary Gearin was on Ten and was Jennifer Hansen’s primary fill-in.

ABC News Channel broadcasting Ian Henderson’s final bulletin nationally today.

EDIT: And there’s been a technical issue. Wouldn’t be any other way to farewell the ABC. News Channel is now taking national rolling news.

Did the report just freeze for anyone?

Make it two technical issues. First the wrong graphic was shown in the background during the first report (stockmarket crash) then the screen froze after a report on proposed federal tax cuts for small and medium businesses.
ABC Victoria is showing the NSW bulletin now.

He might have to do a Friday night farewell instead?

I can’t even get the live stream on iView to work?

ABC News NSW (VIC) had two AFL stories to lead the sports break - looks like Sydney is at least catering for Melbourne viewers missing Hendo.
