The 1News brand needs a revamp as does their presentation style. The new boss is yet to make any changes, probably waiting for the merger with RNZ.
TVNZ just taking what I assume is the world/official feed of the funeral. Identical to Three. No local introduction.
From what I hear, playout is in charge. No involvement from News for this evening, at least.
Makes sense. No point paying someone to anchor or top and tail it here for the sake of it.
Definitely. And Jack can always throw forward to the replay during Q&A tomorrow.
Erin Conroy presenting Tonight, tonight.
They had the new banner on Breakfast today
New banner in what sense?
The one they used the other night on the 6pm bulletin.
My guess is they are using the black one because they’ve started using the red on white one as generic explainer lower third during the 6pm bulletin (which I hate).
Here’s the breaking news of the verdict as transmitted during Ellen, which was showing a publicity shot of NBC’s Today show at the time:
Both look garbage
Does not match at all with the Breakfast graphics.
Maybe it shouldn’t match though, as it will just blend in otherwise. This way you can see that, o, there’s breaking news!
1 News is down currently. I was trying to access the
Full video: Jury finds Derek Chauvin guilty of murdering George Floyd
and this message appeared. It is not only that link
Yeah, but it just looks like a shitty mock.
I’m aware that Miriama Kamo will be presenting 1News at 6 tonight, with Melissa having filled in on Seven Sharp all of this week.
Will be Miri’s first bout in a couple of years!
Great!
She is a Professional Newsreader!
