Exactly this. I’m sure if Peter Overton was stepping back a bit, there would be articles about it.
Newsreaders are just like anyone else and may have other commitments to attend to.

Chris Uhlmann was spruiking a new children’s book he has written on the afternoon news in Sydney. His brother is co-author as an artist.

Nine News Adelaide also does extended interviews during their 5pm bulletin, however they’re usually with someone like a medical expert for example and not used to promote a product or service.

Friday (10.3.2023): Peter Hitchener is presenting tonight in Melbourne. Dougal filled in for Alicia on afternoon news Mon/Tues and I assume he will do the same for tomorrow/Sunday.
