Today’s Morning News had an in-studio interview/discussion:
Heat Wave transition:
6pm news in NSW and VIC is NOT being shifted tonight due to the cricket, which can be seen on 9GEM.
Closed Captions not working on Nine News Sydney so far tonight.
Thank god. People must of complained.
30 minutes news at 6pm has always been the schedule in all 4 markets for the duration of this test.
Sydney News from last night. Reception hiccup at the end of the bulletin but it shouldn’t effect the viewing Also I’m guessing G’s last bulletin will be next Thursday evening.
Whoops! The 9 News Adelaide Facebook page has accidentally posted an update for the Gold Coast news.
Edit: screenshot for posterity
6pm news has been delayed for Sydney and Melbourne tonight, this may have something to do with the late start to the days play in the cricket.
Yet a news update just aired with the super stating 6pm. You’d think in the 19-20+ mins they knew that they won’t be on air on time that they’d re-record it so they don’t look lazy.
With the cricket likely to end soon are we going to get a full hour bulletin (which would explain why they didn’t go to it at 6pm so they have more time to prepare the longer bulletin) and A Current Affair?
Doubt it
Looks like 9 news will be a 20 minute bulletin
A Current Affair is airing after Nine News.
9 Gold Coast broke with previous practice and stayed to the end of the cricket. A 12.5 minute local news bulletin with Wendy Kingston followed with one segment of news, a break, then sport and about 20 seconds for weather.
Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide & Perth (most likely) are taking National Afternoon News with Melbourne still producing their own.
Eddy Meyer has done well at Nine after Ten sacked him about five years ago.
Alicia Loxley is presenting a 60 minute Nine News Special covering the Flinders Street accident. It started at 8.30pm AEDST and is airing live across VIC.
It looks like TCN has some new “9News.com.au” branded mic flags! From Vicky Jardim’s live cross during tonight’s Sydney 6pm bulletin:
I tried the web address ⋮⋮⋮9news.com.au but it doesn’t exist.
