This week in Melbourne Channel 9 has been running a contest where 5 people each day can win $1,000.
You have to watch Hot Seat for the daily trivia question and then go to the website to answer it. The winners are announced later in 9 News.
It runs next week as well (according to the terms and conditions).
Latest Queensland promo - “The spirit of your number one news”. Don’t see the connection myself, but I suppose there doesn’t have to be any logic to these promos.
Wow. I have no idea what any of the sentences actually mean.
Come on really? Sydney have been doing it for ages
That’s garbage
Scandal aside, 7’s graphics are better lol. The fonts and colours 9 uses are so random.
Minor blooper on Nine News Sydney tonight - Mark Burrows ended his report with “Mark Burrows, NBN News”.
Mark Burrows minor blooper tonight in Sydney
“Mark Burrows NBN News”
I’m telling you, ask Nine to stop using these NBN News tagouts for national stories anymore. QTQ could’ve just duplicated all national stories Brisbane is receiving without the hassle.
Standing presentation Breaking News graphic in Melbourne tonight. First I’ve seen it.
“When Queenslanders are up against it” leans really hard into the idea that its Queensland vs the rest of the world.
Looks awkward
lol just sit at the desk ffs.
WTF Adelaide?
I know these newsrooms see a lot of death and devastation but are they so immune to the trauma of it that they think it’s a good idea to cover the Uvalde school shooting followed by a celebration of Australian comedy seconds later? And they’re so proud of their effort that they tweet about it. The writers of Frontline couldn’t come up with this shit.
Guess they have to find something to fill their afternoon News hour and this is the best they can serve up 
Not a great choice of content for what’s ‘trending’ and the sequence is even worse.
This report is making waves in QLD - probably one of the only times the hype about a QTQ special report was almost worth it.
For anyone who hasn’t see the story - it detailed the exorbitant taxpayer spending of former (and convicted criminal) Ipswich Mayor Paul Pisasale and colleagues on a trip to Europe 14 years ago - the idea of the trip was to find inspiration for Ipswich innovation in Europe. The end result? A brochure.
I heard reporter Josh Bavas on ABC radio this morning discussing it - watch 7 and everyone else try to play catch-up tonight… it’ll be interesting how they do it because 9 had to RTI the documents they cited and the turn around for an RTI request is a lot slower than 24 hours.
