Yep. Only robo cams for news now.
I saying that I wouldn’t imagine they move the cameras in studio much though during bulletin. Melbourne has mapping markers on the walls of the studio which appears Sydney doesn’t.

Could somebody please tell me what format the condensed Seven News Perth bulletin, which airs on GWN7, takes?
Kind regards,

When is this fart-in-a-lift of a television news service going to finally relaunch?

It’s almost crazy how many leaks of the supposed new package and branding for other news programs there has been to date, no consistency or effectively managed roll out whatsoever.

Because the massively publicised changes went really well last time. The transitions over time are less jarring to viewers.

7NEWS hits new highs
Australia’s biggest weekday news audience in a decade
7NEWS: #1 nationally in 2021
The Seven Network’s 7NEWS has cemented its position as the #1 news show in Australia after recording the nation’s biggest average Monday to Friday capital city news audience in over a decade.
Last week (26 to 30 July), an average of 2.06 million viewers nationally watched 7NEWS at 6pm, with 1.39 million viewers in the capital cities – the biggest audience since June 2011.
On Sunday 25 July, an average of 2.32 million viewers nationally and 1.56 million across the capital cities watched 7NEWS, making it biggest single news audience on any network since January 2017.
The recent high caps a strong year for 7NEWS, which has won every single week of the survey ratings year across the capital cities and nationally.
The nation’s favourite news program has also won every week this survey ratings year in Adelaide and Perth, and has won 12 of the 23 weeks so far in Melbourne.
7NEWS hit recent highs in Sydney and Melbourne on Sunday 25 July. Sydney recorded 430,000 viewers, the biggest news audience across free-to-air television since January 2017, and Melbourne recorded 516,000 viewers – the biggest television news audience since April 2019.
We are hugely proud that 7NEWS is where Australians turn for trustworthy, high-quality news content during crucial times.
Providing the very best local and national news service possible with accurate and trustworthy journalism, is at the heart of what we do. In each market across every News program we have the most exceptional teams delivering 24/7 in these exceptional times.
Our investment in original reporting and content has helped 7NEWS become a significant force in breaking local and national news. The past year has been a critical time for our viewers and as the nation continues to go through great change and challenges, 7NEWS will remain the first place Australians turn for the defining stories and the vital facts.
Craig McPherson, Seven’s Director of News and Public Affairs
7NEWS’ recent highs and the success of Seven’s live, free and exclusive coverage of the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 helped Seven Network achieve a 59.8% commercial share last week – its highest weekly share since the OzTAM audience measurement system started in 2001.
Seven has now won 17 weeks so far in the calendar year 2021 and has been #1 in 12 of the 23 weeks so far in the survey year 20201.

Anyone know if these “national” figures include the 6 local 6pm editions of 7 Queensland local news, 7 Tasmania and prime7 local News at 6?
Yes they do.
I really think claiming that during the Olympics is such a non event (the news ratings not the olympics) as of course they are going to be inflated. Watch them drop right back once the games are over. People will go back to their previous habits.
They are fools for doing this haha it’s almost embarrassing they they are clutching at this.

A win is a win. People have a choice. They can easily choose to change to Nine at 6pm and go back to 7 at 7. Just like people would leave 7 at 6pm to go to 7Two to continue Olympics.

My point is they are saying Number 1 in 2021 which is wrong. It’s based off inflated figures and 2 weeks of the year. It’s embarrassing spin.
