Weekend Breakfast - no clock - a brief sports report but lacking other news of the the day in contrast to W Sunrise and W Today that did cover other stories.
Seven’s revised schedule for today and the next few posted in the Seven Schedule area.
Sunday’s schedule including primetime is completely replaced. The Latest branding will be used Mon-Wed for extended late bulletins . Normal Sunrise, morning and afternoon programming from Monday.
The only other time I’ve seen rolling coverage like this (on all networks) was 9/11.
He didn’t seem too bad from the half hour I watched, but I reckon this is why they put him on in a late shift - let him have a hand at rolling news coverage to gain a bit more experience since it’d be very different to reading a 6pm bulletin.
Other times there has been all network rolling coverage (and the first time) was during coverage of the Gulf War.
9/11 was a massive unprecedented event so rolling coverage like that was warranted. My question about is this level of coverage is whether it will be reflected in the ratings.
A difference now is that there are multichannels which gives the networks a lot more flexibility - they can still show sport and alternative programming for viewers who don’t want rolling coverage.
How long will tv presenters etc wear black?
Interesting to see Nine Adelaide use a normal opener, unlike TCN, GTV and STW. Not sure if QTQ, NBN or NTD used the normal opener.
DC, Sylvia and Jayne yet again took over Karl & Sarah from 10am. Instead 12pm
7NEWS Regional WA also used the whole bulletin to cover just Queen Elizabeth II’s death, like Nine News Melbourne.
Really? I watched the King shake hands and interact with people when he returned to London and the crowd was quite diverse.
