I was tossing up whether or not to do a new thread for the “Sydney Sick Kids Appeal” earlier in the week, ultimately I didn’t because it was unclear whether this was a full-on telethon or just something done during ad breaks, etc.
Either way, it likely explains why we didn’t see a Gold Telethon on Nine for the Queen’s Birthday Public Holiday…
Mark Stevens is leaving Seven to be the Media Manager for the Victorian Liberal Party. Big loss for the network. Who will replace him as Chief Football Reporter?
Either way, they’ll need to hire someone new, otherwise they’ll only be left with Tom Browne, Andrew McCormack, Laura Spurway and Chris Stubbs as reporters.
I reckon they should poach either Rob Waters from Ten, or Corey Norris from Nine, to become Chief Football Reporter.
They made it seem like she was leaving, as in Matt and Nat were saying how good it has been chatting to her etc, wishing her well etc however she also said she’d be bringing all the news from over there.
So my interpretation is that she is staying with 7 for reports but maybe not live crosses so much into the likes of Sunrise. But I’m not certain.
Knowing Seven News Sydney, I wouldn’t be surprised if the previous endtag featured Fergo alongside Usher & Cox!
But as someone who hasn’t seen it yet, I do wonder if the “new” endtag with just Fergo & Usher was one filmed before the Boxing Day secondary presenter changes…
