I think we need to start counting when they don’t have any issues.

The technical issues are probably a big reason why Seven are getting a leg-up on Nine in Sydney at 6:30pm. Any viewer can tell you that nothing is more frustrating from the audience’s point of view than technical problems that affect their experience.

Who is this reporter?
There was no super or sign off for superannuation piece on the 6pm Sydney news.
Haven’t seen her before.

Looks like she’s Kathleen Gazzola’s replacement.

Is this the first time she’s presented?
I’m waiting patiently for Jo Hall!!

I think so!
Unfortunately it looks like Jo is back to what she did prior to regional news. Maybe she might still fill in from time to time but it would be a shame if she doesn’t have a regular presenting role anymore.
Maybe Rebecca Maddern might also appear on the afternoon news in the future?

Has Jo filed any reports since she’s finished her newsreading duties? (I rarely watch Nine News Melbourne).

It’s rare that someone stays with the same employer for that long these days, even more so in the cut throat media industry.
Well done Pete!

Goes to show that some are either extremely loyal or Nine Sydney has a good working environment.
You certainly don’t see that level of loyalty at Seven.

While things have probably improved since then, I’d imagine that Pete would’ve come close to leaving Nine about 15 years ago after how poorly they treated Jessica Rowe during her short time at the network…

Brett McLeod filed his first report as Europe Correspondent tonight

I feel like Brett McLeod might’ve been the wrong choice as Europe correspondent, because he makes a great newsreader. Say if Peter Hitchener chooses to retire while Brett is still overseas then Alicia Loxley would probably step into the weekday role and Jo Hall or Dougal Beatty would probably step into the weekend role. Then when Brett McLeod returns to Australia and completes his 14 day hotel quarantine he would step into the weekday role and Alicia Loxley would return to weekends. I don’t know of anyone else who could’ve been employed as a Europe correspondent, but Brett McLeod was definitely the wrong choice in my opinion.
