It’s as if someone at Nine is randomly pushing buttons.
Coverage can sometimes be over the top and gratuitous.

That is all.

I’m glad that Seven resisted the temptation to hit the “Mark Alert” button and allowed Ann Sanders to front their coverage.
As they should be for all national “Breaking News” coverage whenever he’s available, because Peter Overton is a senior news presenter at Nine and is generally good at what he does.
