As much as people complain about 10 not having someone there: wouldn’t you rather the better coverage (from CBS reporters)? Embedded with troops! No other Aussies are anywhere near that!

Doesn’t 10 have Paul Gonzo there?
Yep, this could indeed be one way for 10’s news division to rebuild some credibility after the relentless cuts over the past 10 years- by harnessing the resources of CBS they could build a reputation as the ‘go-to’ Australian news source for global news with the best reporters in the best locations and perhaps use this as a launchpad for bolstering their domestic offering which is still very light-on especially compared to Seven, Nine and the ABC.
