One News NZ (2016-Feb 2025)

Would love to see Wendy on Breakfast it wouldn’t be a bad gig and she would also have Midday. Question is though their budget! Would be a shame to lose her off screen entirely.

It would allow them to ‘spin’ her being axed from the 6pm bulletin

So with Auckland back in lockdown is Wendy now finished or will she present the next three nights alone and hooroo?

On second thought would it not just be Chris Chang? He seems to do midday a fair bit and loses his sport gig from Hayley moving… although in today’s world you couldn’t possibly have 3 males 1 female.

Simon Dallow fronting the 10:30am PM briefing coverage.

1 News still providing rolling coverage. After the presser finished shortly before 12, reporter crosses started to multiple locations in Auckland, and in Rotorua + Wellington.

Would have been the Midday news, Would it also be Simon’s first time hosting midday?

No reference to it being the midday bulletin as such. Simon’s presented Midday in the past, I believe in the period that Daniel Faitaua stepped away from Breakfast.

Is that an NZ version of Tipping Point?

UK version

OK, here in OZ we don’t have the colored tokens on the UK version. Anyway, offtopic.

Simon and Wendy both presenting at 6.

Different season perhaps? I think I’ve seen it some while back without them.

Back to the news…

Why can they never get the camera angles right on Seven Sharp. They’re always off centre, it’s distracting and annoying to me at least, a viewer who cares about camera angles haha.

Maybe the cable run isn’t long enough for the camera that’s used?

Bugs my ocd you’re not alone

Wendy Petrie still finishing up tomorrow night at 6pm. Will be sad to see her go.

Depending on whether Auckland goes up to level 4, I have heard she may be back on 6pm pretty quickly (split teams again)
