That just looks really cheap tbh.
They would have just forgotten to cover it with the black slates after Sunrise/TMS.
Anyone just catch the weird green screen studio just featured on Sydneyâs 4PM News around about 4:43PM
Is that the faux-newsroom backdrop used when they cross to Fergo (or Usher if itâs a Friday) for a preview of whatâs coming up tonight at 6pm? If so, that one has been around for a while now.
Exactly what I was looking at.
I notice Seven News is having a new advertorial in the first ad break: a Medibank health update with former Seven Melbourne reporter Mia Greves, with âcoming upâ headlines at the bottom of the screen.
this has been on for at least a month in Perth!!!
Aired at the end of the Brisbane bulletin tonight too
In Brisbane too.
This has been mentioned before
Iâm pretty sure Sydney is also getting both of those presentational elements (Sponsored âUp Nextâ segment + Promotion for The Latest) mentioned, probably a network directive for at least all five main metro markets.
So it appears 7 Adelaide have their own chopper again. VH-NDY was flying around Adelaide for some time in the red and white livery but without the 7 or news logos. And now on tonightâs news the 7 has returned (without NEWS)âŚ
Surely 7 didnât pay to hire their old chopper and reinstate the white â7â just for one news item . But then, VH-HSV (shared media helicopter) was still flying about in Adelaide yesterday, according to FlightRadar24.
Could this be old footage?
Thatâs what I thought at first, but the story was about a school-aged competition winner who won the chance to ride in the chopper for day 1 of the 2019 school year:
I didnât think any of the choppers had been repainted yet. (still)
correction⌠I know some have been painted with 9 on one side and 7 on the other.
Really?
The former GTV9 helicopter in Melbourne has been painted all white with a blue strip I think.
Yeah, the ex-TCN chopper got a similar treatment from what I recall.
If itâs true that Seven Adelaide have regained a chopper, thatâs incredibly interesting. Youâd think the Sydney or Melbourne stations would be more likely to regain independent choppers given that both are more populated markets and theoretically at least, generate more local news content.
