You are completely right. As I said my thoughts are with those alleged victims in all of this. My whole issue throughout this whole trial was the fact it was a trial by media. Which put those victims in a vulnerable position. Victoria should really look at options that consist of judge alone in cases like this. Just like other states have done.

Yes it looks horrible and grainy. I wonder where they’ve sourced it from.

Studio 10 was live in WA too. The show started with the delayed feed, faded to black and then joined the live feed announcing the news. A few minutes later Sarah welcomed WA & SA Viewers joining live.

Perfectly said by Daniel Andrews. Beautifully respectful. His leadership over the last few months has been fantastic. I have huge respect for him as a leader.

Seven inexplicably missed the shot of Pell leaving prison that was captured by other networks.

This is their best shot.

Nine’s coverage has finished at 12:41

Interesting to note, ABC, Seven and Nine utilised the same helicopter for their coverage.

10 hired its own chopper. I think this is the first time we’ve seen 10 obtain a chopper for news coverage in a long time.

There needs to be a clean sweep of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church in Australia. Comensoli and Fisher need to go.

Was it just the traffic chopper you think?
