Thought so.
Don’t get me wrong. The virtual set is shit. I just liked Barra on the desk proper not around the stupid corner. But they went back to that for the sports section. So it was short lived anyway.

I reckon Lynne Scrivens (EP of Seven News Melbourne, formerly COS and before that Sydney) would be a strong chance to take over from Mr Pristel?

Two noteworthy things for mine here, does Ryan Phelan usually do breaking news updates? And are they usually with that unconventional backdrop?

From Seven
Channel Seven Melbourne Director of News Simon Pristel has resigned his position with Seven. Simon is set to leave television at the end of the year to establish his own communications company.
Simon has led the news team for more than six years, achieving an outstanding result over the last 12 months of a 2% growth year-on-year. He will continue in the role for the next three months to ensure a smooth transition to a new leadership team.
Network Director of News and Public Affairs Craig McPherson said;
“Simon leaves Seven News Melbourne in great shape. Under his stewardship the news hour has undergone substantial change and seen impressive growth.
“His commitment, passion and leadership has set us up well for the future.
“I wish him nothing but success as he takes those traits into the business world.”
Managing Director, Channel Seven Melbourne Lewis Martin said;
“Simon is a highly regarded newsman across the complex news gathering landscape.
“No one knows Melbourne, and what makes Melbourne tick, better than Simon.
“This knowledge and his passion for news is what sets him apart from the rest.
“He leaves Seven Melbourne with our respect and deep appreciation for a job well done.”
Along with Craig and Lewis, Simon addressed the newsroom this afternoon. Speaking later, he said;
“It has been a tremendous privilege leading the talented and passionate Seven News team.
“The newsroom is in great shape for the future and I look forward to working closely with Craig and Lewis to deliver a smooth transition to new leadership group.”
