Even better still, have they not heard of Bluetooth ear pieces?

youâre introducing a point of failure with anything wireless and potentially a source of interference.

They obviously have a wireless receiver in their back pocket, I canât imagine that there is a cable running all the way out the back of the studio.
That must be using a radio frequency rather than Bluetooth and canât be designed to be any smaller to make them more discreet.
Studio 10 uses wireless earpieces. Theyâve mentioned them on air a few times

radio mics operate at a higher frequency⌠and I know quite a few studios that still use wired mics.
Iâm not saying they canât be used (donât know anywhere where that couldâve been inferred) ⌠but it is a potential weakness.

Itâs clear theyâre trying to push the weather segment more, Jane Bunn is killing it on the other channel.

Yes- she kills me. It is so hard to watch Janeâs weather- I really donât like her presentation style. It is condescending but placid. Odd.
I really like that weather graphic for GTV though- Melbourneâs four seasons in one day. Eventually, they will do the whole segment from that megawall, I think. Good on them for taking steps to improve their bulletin now- even if they are incremental.

Well Seven obviously think differently because she signed a new three year deal with Seven in December last year.

Nine canât be too concerned about the ânews warâ in Melbourne spreading to Sydney when they give free plugs to the enemy during the Sunday night bulletin.

At least theyâre disclosing paid spots now. Any improvement is good improvement lmao
Why on Earth do they keep saying âSMS your name etcâ instead of âtext your name etcâ?
When was the last time you heard someone say âIâm going to SMS someoneâ?

Probably canât accept RCS messages. Lol, I kid.
because there are some people out there who are - letâs just say - ancient, that canât grasp the different sorts of technology available. My folks included. They would see that ad, try and ring and give their names to the âoperatorâ

I usually hear it from the kinds of people that still religiously watch the 6pm news.

Iâve seen similar comments on social media too.
Lots of comments of people saying they canât stand Jane Bunn because she speaks as if sheâs talking to a child.
