If you want your 6pm news shouted at you, sure.
The presenter definitely said Townsville, which is why I thought it was notable enough to mention. Perhaps she meant Bowen.
NSW / VIC have now gone to the Afternoon News on Nine.
SA also taking national afternoon news right now
Melissa Downes told other viewers that there will be arvo news coming to rest of the states.
7 Afternoon News Melbourne is not running today.
Things down in Bowen:
ABC FM
BOM radar
Optus network
Power
Air pressure
Can confirm it’s off the air.
I’ve been trying to tune in to it for a few days now and it’s not worked once, no idea why.
Watched the press conference a few days ago where they were saying “Townsville residents tune to 630 AM”, etc. so I tuned in and the station didn’t work.
Tried on other AM/FM radios and couldn’t fit it on any frequency.
Then I take you never watch Nine’s Queensland morning and afternoon news on Fridays and 6pm news on weekends.
Nat might shout, but I personally like her presentation. Alicia Loxley, Eva Milic and Alison Ariotti also yell but you never mention them.
Earlier they just used the weather map when I was watching today this morning.
I don’t watch them, so I don’t comment on them. If you showed me a photo of all three, I doubt I could pick who was who.
NB/ I suppose the odds are reasonable with only three options, however.
Won’t someone please think of the children!
Seven’s national coverage is finishing up now.
Queensland coverage continuing with Sharyn Ghidella.
Nine cut coverage to 5Pm for Hot Seat. 7 News and ABC continuing the coverage.
7’s Queensland coverage is also being shown in Adelaide, for I guess 30 minutes til The Chase Australia’s timeslot
EDIT: 7 Adelaide has broken away from Brisbane local coverage shortly before 5pm to go to The Chase Australia.
