Seven News Content and Appearance

So was her being upset the hilarious bit?

I did say this at the time when Bec returned to Seven. A double header at 4pm is completely unnecessary.

Mike should have continued doing 3 days a week solo and Bec does the other 2 days, so she therefore works a 4-day week and you can cut her salary by 20%.

Seven did go with a double header on a revamped national afternoon news in 2013 (with Matt White and Melissa Doyle). This lasted into April 2014, when White left to return to Network Ten.

But I do agree that in this day and age, a double header on the local afternoon news is unnecessary.

Not the same thing. That was national though. This is local. So unnecessary.

Yes this might seem tacky, and its certainly not my thing - but I can see exactly what they’re doing, the whole impetus is to move the bulletin to something more tabloid - tabloid = appeal to ‘grocery buyers’.

More of that demographic - more eyeballs - ageing population - this is (the majority of) their audience, like it or lump it …

… its all about giving your sales team something to sell.

Yeah, I can see what they are doing and can see how this will attract viewers.

I said this before but I think the ultimate aim is to turn the 6pm news into an evening version of Sunrise. Just wait until the Cash Cow appears next to Fergo… :smiling_imp:

Not really. Probably to justify the contract and pay their deal is to host weekends 6pm as well as 4pm news locally…. Nothing unusual or a waste compared to years ago having a weekend only presenter that does nothing but present weekend bulletins…
