And that note thingy makes the apology look like something out of The Simpsons.

The newsreader usually reads an apology like that. Can’t say i remember seeing an apology for an error in a news bulletin being done in that form before.

Not surprised that much of the report on half-price hamburgers turned out to be more advertorial than news; mostly dealing with the opening soon of Carl’s Jr.

QLD is the fast food capital of Australia. None of those brands pictured are yet to make it in Perth.

When did Bridie Barry join Nine? Didn’t know she left Sky

Mo’s Burger is Japanese and has been around for years in Brisbane.

Was just about to say that, Mos Birger has been around for years in Bris so nothing new there.

Carl’s Jnr has been open at Brisbane Airport for over 2 years now (June 2016) and Taco Bell in Annerley on Ipswich Road opened late last year.

I hate to further distract us from news, but I wonder if Little Caesar’s is just as cheap and bad over there as it is here in the states.

They are pretty bad. Interesting how they’ve made the Australian stores a lot more modern (following a precedent set by Maccas). Most of the stores I’ve seen here in the US have the standard fast food look or worse…

The tape rolled a fraction late

Recorded off a Brisbane cross in 5:25pm Gold Coast news preview - seems to have been recorded before 5pm based on background TVs.

Not sure how long this one has been running for but here’s a new, unusually minimalist promo (especially compared to what we’ve come to expect) for Nine News Sydney:

Seven’s version from a few years ago was far better.

Yeah i do not know why Nine Perth usually does the 4PM weather outside the newsroom unless or even if its something special (Eg. Kids Netball).

Nine Perth uses the weather outlook (Which is now presented in full screen since April) for their weather update on 12/7/2018. However, the first time that they did it was back in Feb 2017.
