Have you met Mike Dalton? I thought you wrote that you had.
Yes, at the 2018 Royal Easter Show - I’ve mentioned this a few times before.
It’s unclear whether Dalts (or WIN’s Samara Gardner & Prime7’s Sarah Navin, both of whom I met at Homebush in 2019) actually knows that he’s met SydneyCityTV in real life.
Of course there are plenty of other media-related people I’d love to meet in real life, but again that’s something which can wait until the current pandemic situation calms down a bit.

Jesus who are the snowflakes on here?
In other news, I know of a (gay obvs) couple who have been together after meeting on here for 10 years

could it be possbile to have a regional victoria thread under the covid 19 section? since we already got a melboune lockdown thread?
Which topics were locked and restarted? Just trying to find the ones I had tracked that I haven’t read in a while…
Sunrise, Today, plus the Seven, Nine, Ten C+A and P+R threads (although the Seven one was done about six weeks prior to the rest)/.

What’s with the ‘Historic News Events’ thread being closed, then opened, then closed? Because of 9/11? I would have thought a few people might want to post some of the coverage there.

Yes - previous discussion around the events of the day has been of a poor standard (bordering on disaster porn)

Should we opened the cricket Broadcast Right thread? It looks like it could be all over:

Good idea I think @Leo_Puglisi6
According to The Daily Telegraph , SWM has sent a legal letter to Cricket Australia informing the governing board it is cancelling the contract.
A Seven spokesperson provided B&T with the following statement: “Seven has no further comment to make but confirms the report.”
Fox Sports – also a Cricket Australia broadcast partner – is also said to be concerned about the upcoming summer.
While some have suggested this could be a tactic from Seven to renegotiate the existing deal at a cheaper price, The Australian has reported SWM is adamant about terminating the deal.
Take any more discussion to the relevant threads.

Until we get a better idea of the state of play (as in that there are actually rights up for grabs) the thread will remain locked.
Discussion can remain in the Seven Cricket Coverage thread for the time being

It’s not often speculation interrupts play.

Suggestion: Should we have a thread where we can put all the caps, videos (etc) of tonight’s final local 10 News First bulletins? Certainly one for the history books.
(Possibly into the Centralisation thread?)
Done.

Quick question
If I wanted to float an idea for a ABC/SBS merger and put it in the right area (under ABC and SBS), is it appropriate to create a new thread OR put it in either existing ABC operations or SBS operations threads?
