They tried that years ago and it failed because they couldn’t compete against Eight national news (now 9 news) and ABC news in a tiny market in Darwin

That looks pretty good! Thought it was a mock for a second

Is there a video of it?
Hey that looks somewhat decent (surprisingly).

Very impressive that they’re even using the 10 News First theme song.
Would be nice if they had some footage accompanying the reports.

I get that it’s just day one and all, but this “update” is not really news. Today is Thursday and the lead item is an arrest that happened on Tuesday? People being turned away from Kiama on Saturday and “by Monday” it was a “ghost town”? For a so-called news update it doesn’t seem to really provide anything of the sort.

Tasmania SCA again providing the quality on air updates!

Obviously Ten doesn’t have any issues with SCA sullying their news brand as Seven did when they didn’t allow them to use the Seven News brand in Tasmania. Not sure that’s such a good idea considering most of the stories in that update were on last night’s local news broadcasts on SCA Nine and WIN.

Completely different to the old Canberra output.
I am very surprised. That looks great. Just need some footage for the stories.

SCA actually using professional graphics?!
Just saw the first of these in Canberra.
Graphically the update was very good.
However, the update was boring because it was just the presenter reading at the screen. No OTS, no vision. A bit plain in that sense.
Surely SCA have some file footage from 7 Tasmania or access to file footage from 10 that they could show to at least liven these up a little bit.

Even a file photo would make it slightly more interesting if they have to resort to that

Another update aired for the Sunshine Coast - the wrong region weather graphic was shown at the end.

These really aren’t great but it’s a start. Hopefully the product improves a bit.

Very impressed with the graphics. I’m glad they were able to get something to look and sound good.
Hopefully over the coming days and weeks things get better as the presenters get more experience and they can make things a bit lively even if they can’t get footage.
Hopefully footage will happen but I’m not so sure as the TDT9 updates rarely had it.
