Yes. It’s a gripping story that has captured the attention of millions spanning the last 40 years. There were plenty of updates to provide throughout the day, especially once the Judge started mid-morning. There may not be another Australian story to match the gravity of it this year.
Seven and Nine did a solid job. ABC held back until the verdict was through - probably being legally conscious.
Very little coverage of the Pakistan floods, looks like it is very serious. 33million people homeless or displaced.
IMO SBS led the way in coverage with their Asia correspondent Aaron Fernandes on the ground in Pakistan.
How the hell is an unrelated celebrity posting an Instagram story about the Dawson verdict worthy of an article??
Daily Mail just trying to cash in on the Dawson verdict coverage. Trashy journalism at its finest.
No coverage of the UK leadership handover with ABC and Sky ignoring Liz Truss’ final speech as PM
More important local news tonight.
Extensive coverage of the mistrial this morning with multiple crosses including to Brittany Higgins.
What was the misconduct?
See:
Lions escape their enclosure at Taronga.
Ironically the next episode of Taronga Who’s Who In The Zoo features this lion enclosure (11 Nov) - surprised Nine haven’t pulled up that footage to show.
Update: Now reported that lions back in exhibit.
From Taronga: Who’s Who - deals with exactly this enclosure.
Update - 4 cubs were part of the 5 that escaped. They are the subject of the next Taronga show.
Updte:
Huge story unfolding in QLD. Police officers shot. Any coverage anywhere?
Sounds like there’s a police press conference in about 25 mins. Wonder if it’ll be carried live anywhere.
I’d imagine ABC will carry it, currently as breaking news on the bottom and Bev introduced it at the start with more details to follow as it develops.
This will be a big story in the next 12-24hrs
ABC are going live to the press conference soon.
I’m assuming Nine Late News will be covering this?
Where is Seven’s The Latest??
Seven ran a news update. The info wasn’t a lot more than was reported in the 6pm news. They are the only ones with vision from the area.
ABC news; 2 police officers dead plus one member of the public.
Statement is being read but no questions.
Confirmed three dead, including two police officers.
