Nine News Late

It use to be a lot worse. I can recall ACA, TT, The Today Show, even the morning news service knocking off over the summer break.

Back in the early 2000s, Ten News had a summer edition at 7:00pm, though I can’t remember if they were local or national. In Sydney at least, they had either Ron Wilson or Jessica Rowe present the bulletin, with Tim Webster on sport.

It was local in all states.

Reason for a delay?

Given the delay, it would’ve been a perfect time for 10 to launch their late news this week.

Assuming because Perth don’t have the new graphics yet.
Wouldn’t want a mishmash when Sydney/Perth/Newcastle host the bulletin.
Lines up with Perth apparently getting the graphics in February.

Could be to give Media Spy “cappers” a break after a busy day :wink:

Clearly it’s an AI generated city background.

It’s a much better backdrop

I think it fits better for a early evening bulletin not a late bulletin

Agreed - seems too ‘bright’ for a late news bulletin. Like even head back to the Nightline days of a live city backdrop or something?
