News Breakfast

  1. Not everyone has Facebook
  2. The show helps attract new viewers to watch it during the week that may have otherwise not watched. (People have more time to watch TV on the weekends and may not have been exposed to News Breakfast during the week so decide to start making it part of their morning routine)
  3. It’s cheap programming in an off-peak slot that promotes their own talent rather than an OS import.

What did the ABC News Channel air last week at the same time? Highly doubt it was Ameeican/overseas content.

Sorry. I had no idea what I typed about.

God I hate that set. Worst breakfast set on TV In my opinion.

Sorry if Im going on a bit of a rant here, but how hard is it to have all the presenters there together? It’s actually become a novelty for Michael and Virginia to be together.

Where’s the rant that was promised???

But yes, has there been a week at all where all 5 regulars have been on all week?

Its not bad… but yes the ABC could invest in a better set. They have so much more room to play around with in regards to the new studio.
