Nine News Content and Appearance

Did the 6pm bulletin air? Looks like ratings will drop tonight, seeing from some of the comments

Nope, nothing Adelaide, all Melbourneā€™s 9 News. There was a super that appeared at about 6:20 that said 9 News Adelaide will not air tonight due to technical issues.

Wow. Could this be due to an attack like we saw last year, or just some major issues? Hopefully other cities arenā€™t effected

Itā€™s a good thing the Sydney bulletin doesnā€™t air in northern NSW.

So did Melbourne News air 2 times in a row?

They got part way through Adelaideā€™s Nine News at 5 and then cut to Hello SA as filler programming and then went to Melbourneā€™s Nine News at 6pm.

Wouldnā€™t have picked Melbourneā€¦Eek

Why eek? They couldā€™ve gone for the sensationalised drivel that is the Qld bulletin

Wouldnā€™t have made a difference and woulda have meant keeping all the crews back etc. Plus for all we know the technical issues might not be fixed yet.

When your ONLY selling point for the last two years has been to criticise your competitorsā€™ Melbourne links, surely Melbourne is the one market you donā€™t take? There were other options.

In these situations sometimes you kinda just have to go with what you can go with, even if it (inadvertently) means you have to bite your own words.

If daylight savings was still in place they couldā€™ve had Perth present the bulletin live.

So what do you propose? They run a test pattern?

Adeladians arenā€™t going to want Sydney news any more then they would want in Melbourne. They are even less relevant due to the NRL code and not AFL being the primary one.

I think in the instance of tech issues, taking Melbourne was the right call
