I could be wrong as it may have just been a report but does MSNBC now have rolling Sky uk coverage going on?

ABC News, 7 and 10 were all just showing the Lehrmann decision live. Seems the audio was either lost or cut to all networks. All networks now moved onto their regular offerings, promising to come back if audio is restored.

ABC caught the start, followed by 10 not long after. 7 seem to be sticking with ads and normal programming this time round.

10 left the coverage at 11:13, directing people to its YouTube channel. ABC left coverage at 11:14 for NSW Premier press conference.

10 have opted out on broadcast tv of the judgement. Apparently a repeat of Dr Phil is more important.

It’s a very extensive Judgment, I’m not surprised 10 moved on and directed people to YouTube.

Agree - ABC News also ended coverage but returned now.

10 back taking the judgement live as part of their Midday News.

Only stayed with it for a few minutes, then moved onto other news again.

It was a long judgement. The judge has found for the respondents. On the balance of probability the Judge found that Lehermann raped Higgins on a civil basis. So on that element 10 and Lisa Wilkinson did not defame him.

I’ll reserve my vitriol for Lehrmann to private quarters lest I might over step in my views of him.

Judge: "Having escaped the lion’s den Mr Lehrmann made the mistake of coming back for his hat.”

Media pack chasing Lehrmann down the street.

Network 10’s lawyers didn’t escape severe criticism for their advise to Lisa.
