Where’s Ross Karl; there’s some sort of rugby thing on and I haven’t seen Newshub’s Rugby Reporter cover any of it?
His wife Janika went offair a few weeks back as she was due to have a baby and I think she may have had the baby so Ross has likely come back for some baby time.

New screens for the background of the newsroom presentation point as of today all going to plan.
Will we see it today on 4:30 and 6pm?
The updates they do from the newsroom or if they cross to the Auckland newsroom. Not sure sorry.
I’m finding Newshub at 6 an easy watch at the moment with Ingrid co-hosting. Not so robotic. If they ever moved to a single presenter format surely she would be the obvious choice.
Old VS New
The 2 Smaller TVs that were broken were replaced with 2 New 65" tvs with more sources on them
Old
New
Nice.
I always tend to look more at the screens over their shoulders on those crosses! Hadn’t really noticed the two not going, although, come to think of it, there has been a lot of black back there of late. I guess that’s why!
Now I see what you mean. I was thinking those TV’s have always been black for quite a while and never thought they were broke. Good to see there current owners allowing them to buy some new ones!lol I wouldn’t mind them presenting the 4:30 news from the newsroom but the noise in the background might be an issue.
It’s a big issue during the updates. Would be cool to build a fishbowl like FranceINFO have for their updates
Fishbowl eh? Sounds like an excuse to repeat the headlines every seven seconds!

Sam Hayes returns first week of December
I think bubbly went until 2002… they ran a 3 sport logo that was similar around then, just without the upper Nike swish. I can’t really remember anything about the Lens package apart from the lens itself, so maybe that only lasted a year or so before the 2003 rebrand?
3 stuck with the early ones for ages. Was always a fan of the simplicity of them, OTS one side for news and the other side for sport… and the negative 3 within the golden strap. Timeless.
There’s also the rare 3 News orange opener they used briefly from 2004-05
Was able to look through the tapes at work today and was able to year date the opener changes
