They should have given him last night and tonight off considering The Latest wasn’t (for obvious reasons)/isn’t (due to WBBL) airing

I’m sure they did offer, it’s not like they’re short on presenters.

Not sure if it was mentioned anywhere, but happened to be watching the end of the Morning News this day and there were some tech glitches.
He read the weather but the graphic was frozen on the capital forecasts the whole time and also appeared to be the wrong day and a couple of cities with incorrect forecast read.
Then as he was saying goodbye, BCM abruptly cut him off (bulletin ended), sounded like he had a whole minute or so left! So timing was terribly off.

Last Saturday Michael Usher didn’t presenting the 6pm bulletin but presented The Latest. So, not necessarily.

Thanks guys. I was thinking it might have been interesting to see Rob on a more casual format but likely not the case tonight.

I too would like to see someone other than InteruptingUsher present The Latest.

And Robert “begging for war” (if we’ve all forgotten the infamous banter, that’s absolutely shameful) Ovadia would be a better presenter of The Latest because…?
I’m not one to often defend Michael Usher, but I reckon the interrupting may have something to do with the format of The Latest. Surely he isn’t like this with live crosses on Sydney’s 6pm news?

Great to see Benny back on TV, he was promised the world to move to radio and let down terribly, good on him for sticking it out the number of years he did in very trying and demoralising circumstances at 4BC.
