Nine News Content and Appearance (2015-Sept 2020)

No video unfortunately but here’s a few caps:

Interestingly using older pre-recorded footage of the Sydney news exchange backdrop and older style (July 2014-Late 2015/Early 2016) supers - animation wise there was the spinning globe and highlighting of the “.com.au” bit but they faded in/out for the different text.

I presume that Melbourne was in charge of the mid-evening and late night national updates which run in most markets once the local stations clocked off after the 8.30pm update. Rather interesting, because I thought Sydney is usually in charge of the later national evening news updates on weeknights while Perth (although Melbourne was in charge of Nine’s national late night updates on weekends for many years) has them on weekends.

One can only presume that Nine Melbourne being in charge of the later evening national news updates is either the new normal or a temporary thing, take your pick.
