Thanks - added to list. Petrina featured on tonight’s 9 GC news.
Not much in the way of NSW State Budget coverage on ABC News at 12pm - just a live cross to Nour Haydar in Martin Place with the Channel Seven ticker partially in view:
Sadly, both Seven & Nine seemed to have more extensive coverage (although I missed out on seeing this live)!

Hard to be more comprehensive at that hour - the lock-up ended at noon.

Better coverage of the State Budget on ABC News NSW at 7pm:
While I’m at it, some screencaps of Nine’s coverage:

ABC’s coverage on the NT’s 7PM news was a bit misleading. They kept on saying it in a way that means it hit directly in Darwin, but it hit in the middle of the ocean in Indonesia.
Darwin didn’t feel the full 7.2 magnitude, it was just a bit of trauma.

If the epicentre of today’s 7.2 magnitude earthquake really was Darwin, surely there would’ve been significant damage and sadly, possibly even major injuries or deaths (which thankfully did not happen today, as far as I’m aware)?
But aside from that observation, I personally wonder how Nine News Darwin covered the story tonight. The quake happened just before midday local time, so surely that would’ve been long enough before 6pm for the QTQ-based regional newsroom to think about the possibility of having live coverage in Darwin or having their local windows presented live (yes, I know Darwin doesn’t actually see live Nine News at 6pm anymore due to the 30 minute time difference)?

There was a package right before the news windows.

Coverage of the launch today of the unmanned Indian mission to the Moon.
Faruk Orman is set to become the first to be released from jail because of the Lawyer X scandal.
Victoria’s Court of Appeal has quashed Mr Orman’s conviction and ordered he be immediately released because of a “substantial miscarriage of justice” caused by his double-agent lawyer Nicola Gobbo.
Justice Chris Maxwell: “Gobbo’s conduct was a fundamental breach… she subverted Mr Orman’s right to a fair trial and the very foundations of a criminal trial.”
