Jane Norman has got to go on the ABC. Spouts coalition talking points endlessly and is an apologist for Dutton. She’s just as bad as Patricia “Peter Dutton says” Karvelas.

10’s coverage only on socials or 10play as well?
Surely they’re pushing 10play/socials in the lead up to the Late News
Their coverage plans are outlined above, but like the other commercials they will have a more comprehensive wrap of the announcements in their late bulletins.

SA didn’t get Jeremy’s report - budget coverage was later in the bulletin, with a cross to Greg Jenett, as well as Jane Norman’s package on the budget details (shown during the rolling national coverage), and another report.
