Seven & Ten News (SCA)

Looks like SCA was very keen to pay less as a percentage of revenue to channel 10 and I would imagine that drawing a line in the sand on revenue would not leave them in a good position to ask Ten to pay for and produce the news updates.

Plus SCA have existing facilities in Hobart and Launceston with assets and people that should be fully used. It should be financially better for them this way (quality concerns aside).

Ten probably have enough problems squeezing everything into Sydney and Melbourne without having to find space for the dozens of updates for SCA each weekday.

They were pretty busy with Tas, NT and SA news already. But they seem to have found the studio time.

Bit of a surprise with today’s update.

Three photos were used within the one update and a transition slide was used between each one (which is the first time I’ve seen one used). The entire update was almost close to perfect, the only thing they got wrong was the pronunciation of Kiama.

Does 7Tas still do morning news updates under the Sunrise branding?

If so, does anyone know if they updates this morning/have caps?

As great as 7 Tas News presentation is, they’re still using old supers across the board. Doubtful they’ll update the Sunrise ones

Don’t watch TV in the mornings these days sorry but I did see a new 7 News promo yesterday for the first time that was a 7 one with Sunrise and the Olympics and 7 News etc… in it with the addition of Kim Millar in there too as they often like to do with the 7 promos. Looked good.

Today marks one year since Rachel Williams resigned from reading the news on weekends

I just noticed that Kim Millar was wearing the exact same dark green shirt tonight that she wore this time last year on the 10th August 2020 where Rachel Williams resigned from reading the news on weekends.

Alright, that’s enough internet for today, time to go outside.

Yep. The only time people care about news wardrobes is when they make… unfortunate shapes…

Or unless you’re Amber Sherlock :sweat_smile:

Any idea if SCA are going to get a bulletin to air tonight on GTS/BKN? Broken Hill in lockdown and the border bubble closed would probably be the biggest news day in years for them.

I would sincerely doubt it. They’ll have 30 minutes to fill on Monday anyway.
