Seven News Brisbane - trying to correct their falling numbers, going down the Nine News promo path

1 Like

Seven is losing their credibility in Brisbane by going down this path. :cry:
It’s not the way to regain ratings. If they want to do this bring back TodayTonight as a competitor to ACA.

Doesn’t stop Nine (particularly in Queensland) running stories more suited to ACA during their 6pm bulletin though.

Consistently shit?

Much like Nine, you had to wait until after sport for Seven’s heavily promoted “consumer investigation” that ended with “now is a good time to shop”.

In the end, it was stretch to call it “news”.

The problem is there is no network news in Australia.

It’s basically Hyper local tabloid newsrooms putting out news for a national audience

So this is what you get.

Damn is that in FHD too? Looks crystal clear

I believe this was seen throughout Seven News nationwide…

Sure is!

You should’ve given credit to http://www.siteoffline.com/ for that one!

I believe so, but of course the ticker wasn’t native HD.

Wow, I didn’t think they’d have FHD bulletins back then. What year would this have been? 2009?

When Sam Armytage was a decent news presenter.

If I’m not mistaken, that cap is from 2007. Think that was the year Seven switched their HD channel from 576p to 1080i anyway…

Continuing on discussion of those caps here for a moment - just would like to discuss that “Breaking News” logo…
Looks like those boards we’ve recently been seeing across Seven - “Happening Now” and “All The Facts 6pm”.


What do you think of them? Bad move? Or a good look to their package choice?

That one.

It’s unnecessary and the gloss is too outdated for 2020.

Yep, those new “Breaking News” graphics are like something from ten years ago.

Not a particular fan of their “Happening Now” (total rip-off of “Always On” from Nine News in 2014) or “All The Facts” taglines either. I’d like to think that everything in a Seven News bulletin is factual, but there are valid reasons to question some content decisions and storytelling styles of certain reporters…

Was going to say the same.
