Last summer but only for the summer (maybe once or twice during the year but not regularly).

She fills in at Parliament while the regional news updates are on hiatus.

I hadn’t seen her do a piece to camera before today though.

I think we saw Natalie Forrest file a report for Seven from Canberra maybe during October or November this year? It was definitely a once-off from memory.

But yeah, Nat’s only an Summer/occasional reporter due to her well known commitments with Prime7 News.

If 7 Melbourne was half smart…they’d poach Seb Costello. He is a future 6pm reader…given his popularity, experience, and broad appeal on Triple M sport and as a news (not sport) reporter at GTV.
Peter Mitchell has a job for life there…but it’s pointless throwing names around like Brett McLeod, Helen Kapalos and Dennis Walter because that ship would have sailed by then.
If Mitch stays for another decade…Seb will be 40…perfect age to set up your next anchor…who’ll then hold the chair for at least two decades. It’s a no brainer.

Seb is fine as a reporter, and although I’ve never heard him present on radio, I’m sure he is alright. However, he doesn’t exactly shout as a full time presenter (especially a replacement for Mitch) to me, and while I do agree that presenters like Brett, Helen and Dennis are long out of the radars for the time being, IMO they’re the only people who can actually keep the bulletin up and running.

Seven should’ve never axed Helen Kapolos in the first place, she was a piece of gem which would’ve been a great fill-in presenter and a future replacement.

Mark Ferguson just said tonight will be his last in 2016. He will be back in 2017.

Note the edit: Fergo will be back for 2017.

For a second there I thought you were inferring he said than 2017 will be his last year. If that was actually the case, I imagine there would be many happy MediaSpy members.

Sorry, a typo. I meant to say 2016. I just hit the wrong key.

The names of 2 on-air staff alleged to have had sexual relations with embattled CEO Tim Worner have been published online and can be found quite easily via a Google search. Seven have taken out an injunction to prevent the names being released.

actually it’s a super-injuction, so it’s even more bizarre. These things can’t be hidden thanks to the internet, same happened to British Footballer Ryan Giggs and his super-injunction attempt…failed miserably

And the fact Seven has more leaks than a sieve doesn’t help. If Seven is footing the bill for all this legal action, I’d be peeved if I was a shareholder.

These things exist in Australia? I thought it was only some weird British legal thingo.

And holy shit those names are huge.
