What’s the problem with that? The brand is 10, online or on the air. Pretty soon it’ll be symbiotic, and you won’t need to differentiate that they have an app, it’ll be known.
It’s a tag line, quite clearly. It’s not the name, despite some protestations here.
I agree that this is different to this change from Nine though which I find a little bizarre.
My point has always been that saying “on 10 and 10 play” was simpler than now saying “watch on 10 or stream on the app”.
I agree, although even telling viewers to stream on the app feels old hat at this point.
Given what’s happening with NBN News, I wonder how much longer Nine can justify the current set up with the Gold Coast News. Does the expense justify the big ratings? Are there any savings to be made? I notice many nights (like Monday) there is no sport presenter being used. The weather presenter now presents both GC and Brisbane reports.
From the studio, or on location in Brisbane?
I’ve wondered that too.
An option might be a dedicated Gold Coast ‘block’ of news in the 6pm bulletin (with QTQ showing Brisbane/QLD news to other markets in that block).
So for GC weather they’ll have the presenter on location in Brisbane do it?
Not too dissimilar to how ABC already do it.
Promo logo is “ABC TV + iview”, v/o is something along the lines of “watch on TV or stream on iview” IIRC.
9News special live from MCG currently listed for Melbourne (3 hours) and Adelaide (150 min) main channel.
The State Funeral Service for AFL legend and MND crusader Neale Daniher. A special 9News presentation LIVE from the MCG.
Significant uplift from the initial 2-hour 1-market plan that was offered.
I would think Perth would take the coverage?
Update - also in Perth from 10:00 am
AND NATIONWIDE ON 9NOW
9News will present a special live broadcast this Wednesday, June 10, as Australia gathers to say a final farewell to the late AFL legend, Neale Daniher.
The State Funeral will be broadcast live from the Melbourne Cricket Ground, with dedicated coverage hosted by 9News presenters Tom Steinfort and Alicia Loxley, alongside sports presenter Tony Jones. Coverage will commence at 12.00pm AEST on Channel 9 in Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia, and will stream live and free nationwide on a designated 9Now pop-up channel, ahead of the official, commercial-free service at 1.00pm AEST.
Neale Daniher was a true champion of the game, but it was off the field where he became an Australian hero. Following his diagnosis with Motor Neurone Disease, he courageously turned his personal battle into a public crusade, inspiring the entire country to stand together and take on “The Beast.” His unwavering determination through FightMND raised millions for vital research and fundamentally changed the landscape of the disease, proving that one person can shift the course of history.
Now, it is time for the nation to come together to celebrate his extraordinary life and enduring legacy.
The live 9News special broadcast will capture every poignant moment of the service at the MCG, featuring personal tributes from family, football legends, and those who stood alongside him throughout his historic fight.
All Australians can join in honouring a man who taught us how to fight with grace, humour, and fierce courage by tuning into the live coverage this Wednesday on Channel 9 and 9Now.
What’s the point of these anyways.. Surely this can be covered in the newsbreaks leading up to 4PM?
But it’s Australian News.. we like making things harder than it should
Remember it’s Cost Of Living
