The results have been available on Media Spy for over a week.
End boards here in Melbourne now have âAustraliaâs No. 1â in place of âMake the switchâ (Only thanks to the west) Melbourne and Sydney both still hate it 5 years on.

*I think Seven News is doing well in Queensland (both Brisbane and statewide) this year as well. As much as I hate to admit it, Queensland, Adelaide & Perth are probably enough to get it as âAustraliaâs #1â even though theyâre still trailing Nine in the two biggest markets.
In saying that though⌠Seven has made up ground in both Melbourne an Sydney. It only lost Melbourne by 30k and Sydney by 40k last week.
But if the sole criteria that people are using to base who has won the year on is âweeks wonâ then Seven canât be beaten - 20 weeks won across the hour and 22 weeks at 6pm. Using that criteria it doesnât matter how close the contest is or what happens across the rest of the year.
Havenât Seven News been airing these âAustraliaâs #1â at some stage of the year, for like the past 12 years?
(I remember 2009: âAustraliaâs most watched news serviceâ, like every ad beak)
7News Melbourneâs version of the "Olympic News"
The cap was from 7HD but its shitty upscale on there makes it looks horrid once down converted again. You get the idea though.
Bit messy at the start - you can see where they have slapped two takes of Mitch talking with the flash transition. Not a good look IMO.
The âAustraliaâs Olympic Newsâ promos have been airing since about March or April though, havenât they?
Although in any case, the upload is much appreciated!
That is the first time I have seen the Melbourne version. Either itâs new or not been played much. I know Sydney had theirs running a while back.
Hopefully that means more is planned ahead in terms of Presentation changesâŚ
While a completely new design for the supers would be preferable, I definitely think they should at least change the font on the non-headline supers (reporter, name, etc.) to match the font thatâs used on the other newer graphics!
That said, I still think that the titlecards also need to be updated (at the very least, update the footage to something from a bit more recently than five years+ ago!). Some nicer looking Finance and Weather graphics would probably be appreciated too.
Mitch not having a great night tonight. Unsure if itâs the automation thatâs making him fumble on the autocue or what (most likely the reason). A number of them have happened tonight thoughâŚ
Perth also using the opener with the line under the bolder 7 News logo
Seems to happen a lot to Mitch. Earlier in the year while reading the stocks he couldnât stop giggling throughout it. Also, it seems like he canât operate without the autocue. http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/channel-7-news-presenter-peter-mitchell-gets-giggle-fit-reading-the-stocks/news-story/facb1ddfa95e98c47adfdc28b303dc3a
We always seem to get things late in Adelaide. Then again I suppose someone always has to come last lol
Perth was always last but finally we have court upđ
Except apparently WA is still last in spelling
